avoiding redundancies and in identifying other groups that have alreadyfound solutions to problems they might be facing. Doing so would speed up implementation ofprojects and reduce overall research-related expenses. Discovering the linkages among thesevarious frameworks and systems could aid in discovering unique pathways to complex problemsthat would go otherwise unnoticed. Reverse-engineering of the brain, for instance, could greatlyreduce the cost of computational power by greatly enhancing processing speeds of computersystems. This in turn enables developing countries access to cheaper and more efficientinformation and communication technology (ICT). Likewise, giving better access to the internetcould provide people in developing countries a
