MICROSOFT is planning to expand its research operations in India over the next 18 months.
A spokesVole said that teams in existing research areas will be boosted. New teams will also be created to investigate cryptography.
Ramarathnam Venkatesan, a leading code breaker at Microsoft Research in Redmond has been named to head the new cryptography team.
The plan is to spot for new talent in India, and Vole will conduct a four-week summer school featuring lectures by leading experts in the fields of cryptography, algorithms and security in a bid to find the best.
Vole did not indicate if it was shutting down any of its operations at the Vole hill and seems to be presenting this as an expansion, rather than a shift off-shore.
