[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution.

The UNIAGSFMI Research, Academic and Professional Center (CIAP) promotes research on technologies that support technological development and evolution to the new era of WEB 3.0. The development of blockchain interoperability is the key to Web 3.0 and goes far beyond Ethereum, Cardano, Polkadot, it is the future of the digital world.

The CIAP will create a permanent line of research for the generation of content and solutions that allow promoting the development of blockchain interoperability.

The CIAP allows the creation of matrix lines of research to encourage and promote research through incentives or academic scholarships for the development and dissemination of the topic at undergraduate and graduate levels.

The creation of specialized studies such as Diplomas and specializations is a way to increase the adoption of decentralized technologies.

[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community.

The dissemination and socialization of decentralized technologies through the promotion of research, dissemination, the creation of articles and magazines will generate greater trust and increase the usability of decentralized technologies.

[CAPABILITY & FEASIBILITY] What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

The university and CIAP through the academic infrastructure, with a teaching team is made up of professionals with extensive experience, which guarantees the completion and success of the project, within the capabilities of the team can be mentioned:

 

In education, since they are university professors with more than 10 years teaching classes in computer engineering;

 

In project management, due to the elaboration and evaluation of scientific projects, degree projects and promotion projects within the university institutions where they work;

 

In programming, for their experience in the development of applications for different purposes;

and In technology, for the experience and positions they have held within the institutions where they have worked.

 

Moreover, we have partnerships with university institutions that have computer engineering students with skills and abilities in the development of decentralized applications.

[Project Milestones] What are the key milestones you need to achieve in order to complete your project successfully?

Milestone 1:

Conceptualization and regulations of research lines

Mielstone 2:

Design of the infrastructure required for researchers

Milestone 3:

Formation of the teaching staff for the management of researchers and the products to be socialized

Milestone 4:

Presentation of the research program and formation of the editorial and review team.

Opening of the process of submitting articles and academic works for socialization in the academic sector.
