What is LUMOS

What is LUMOS?

We have faced this question a lot of time on campus, so here is a detailed idea.
LUMOS is the name of the magazine started by The OPEN Initiative, consisting of students across the campus. The magazine dedicates it self to showcasing the variety and uniqueness.

The OPEN Initiative plans to extend LUMOS as a social network, to bridge the communication gap faced by individuals and special intrest groups.

This is achieved in three stages. The first is to network all students and faculty of gat and help them work more productively on the decision making front and getting instant feedback.

The second stage consists of connecting the special interests groups with groups of other colleges enabling a huge amout of information sharing and networking.

The third stage consists of the implementation of the AI, since the launch the social network collects a lot of information about users and thier behaviour anonymously and continually tries to make itself suit the user making itself better day by day.

All this on a simple platform at no cost is the vision of The OPEN Initiative. And added support to selected ideas or concepts will be given by IT VIRTUOSO both in terms of finance and human resource.
