The sources of information include résumés (CVs), research groups, institutions and projects. All sources are standardized using international references in order to assure interoperability in the Internet. The network is designed to have an updated identification of skilled human resources, institutions and research projects for development and assessment of national policies and capacities in ST&I, as well as to promote international cooperation programs. The network is the expression of international cooperation among the National Science and Technology Organizations (ONCYTs), International Science and Technology Cooperation Organizations (OICYTs), Groups of Research and Development in Information and Knowledge Systems (GDIs) and Sponsoring Institutions (SIs) (http://www.scienti.net/php/level.php?lang=en&component=19&item=1). . 0.45
