About
Digital public infrastructures (DPIs) are systems which are used by other software utilities for providing public services. Prominent examples include Aadhaar, UPI, Digilocker etc. DPIs are characterized by the diversity of their use case and user base. The number of users may be in 100s of millions to billions. Such scale and diversity makes the engineering of such systems extremely challenging. This workshop aims to create awareness about DPIs in terms of their socio-technical requirements, present state-of-the-art methodologies that real-world DPI developers are using, and cutting edge research challenges around the theme of DPIs and how researchers in the area of social science, computer science and AI are trying to address these challenges.
The highlights of the workshop are:
- Interactive hands-on sessions
- Keynote talks by experts
- Panel discussions
- Networking sessions
