AAI Concept
As a follow-up activity to the AAI Workshop from November 2000, an inter-university working group was formed in early 2001. The goal of the group was to draft a possible way forward towards a solution for coordinated inter-organizational authentication and authorization for Swiss higher education.
| The results are documented in a four pages paper titled: | ||
| Concept for an electronic Academic Community in Switzerland and the creation of a common Authentication and Authorization Infrastructure (AAI) for the Swiss Higher Education System | ||
