One-off designs made with New Zealand Merino wool by some of the biggest names in world fashion, are set to grace the catwalk during this year's Westfield Style Pasifika at Vector Arena on 18 and 19 October as part of the REAL New Zealand Festival, which showcases all things New Zealand during Rugby World Cup 2011.
Designers including Japan's Yohji Yamamoto, Ireland's John Rocha and Australia's Tigerlily, have joined England's Elizabeth Emanuel - who designed Diana, Princess of Wales' wedding dress - and designers from the other Rugby World Cup nations, in creating garments inspired by their home countries and reflecting the ethics and values of rugby for the event.
Prime Minister John Key invited the world's top designers to create a rugby-themed garment in NZ merino for Westfield Style Pasifika, attracting designers from the iconic Emanuel and Rocha (whose fashion empire turns over more than 200 million Euro a year), Romanian star Andreea Musat and leading South African fashion designer Simon Rademan, to those working in small studios in the Pacific islands and Africa.
The International Collection will feature alongside designs by celebrated New Zealand designers such as World, Zambesi, Sabatini, Annah Stretton, and Untouched World that will reflect New Zealand's unique identity.
The two-night extravaganza, on October 18 and 19 between RWC 2011 Semi-final and Final matches, will also include winning designs from the Westfield Style Pasifika Fashion Awards and designs by previous Style Pasifika stars, against the backdrop of an entertainment spectacular.
Show producer and artistic director Stan Wolfgramm says: "The REAL New Zealand Festival and Rugby World Cup 2011 provide an amazing opportunity for New Zealand as a nation to tell our story to the world while the spotlight is on us.
"Style Pasifika has developed the rugby-inspired International Designer Collection with that in mind. It's incredible to have the support of these celebrated international designers - and our own amazing designers - whose input will ensure this year's event is an absolute must-see for Kiwis and international visitors alike.
"The rugby-inspired International Designer Collection will be the only collection of its kind in the world, cementing our position as a nation that leads the way in creative ideas and design."
Westfield Style Pasifika, now in its 17th year, is an iconic New Zealand event and the world's largest indigenous fashion event. The awards within the event challenge designers to produce cutting edge fashion inspired by the unique and colourful fusion of Pasifika which is everything from this part of the world that makes us distinctive. The result is an explosion of fashion, art and culture, defining a uniquely New Zealand style.

Riding the Wheel of Samsara
Dozens of comments following Omer's post, which confirmed the closure of the lab, would make you believe that it was a magical place where amazing things happened. And indeed, it was. But it was also more than just a place – the lab was a community with its own values, identity, voice and will. In short, it was a living being.
Since the news broke on Thursday, I've been searching for a right model to apply to the lab's sudden demise: Shall we sit shiva? Hold a wake? Eulogize? Stumble through denial, anger, bargaining, and depression towards acceptance? Different cultures deal with a loss in remarkably varied ways. Which one is the most applicable to ours? Reflecting back on the history of the lab that by some accounts goes back more than thirty years and spans several companies, I realized that the right answer had been staring at me all along: the document authored by Naughton and Taylor that beautifully summarized the main principles on which our lab was founded was called "Zen and Art of Research Management" [1]. How very true! One cycle of many reincarnations and rebirths has just completed.
Buddhists process loss in a manner that may look insensitive and heartless. Instead of grieving they celebrate the chance for a new beginning. Even if no one entity may eventually claim to be MSR SVC's rightful heir, its spirit of cross-area collaboration, mutual respect, commitment to fundamental research and support of technology transfer will live on.
I am truly grateful for the opportunities afforded to me by 11 years with MSR SVC, the most cherished of which is the list of collaborators that includes dear friends, bright Ph.D. students, some of the strongest minds in CS, and all around excellent fellows. Thank you and good luck!
[1] Elaboration of Naughton and Taylor's principles in a piece by the last lab director Roy Levin can be found here.
Farewell Microsoft-Research Silicon Valley Lab
Today, I choose to remember the five amazing years I spent in MSR-SV Labs (which are unfortunately closing). In a place with no boarders between research areas, I was free to follow my intellectual curiosity with colleagues I wouldn't normally have the great fortune of working with. My non-theory colleagues have left me a much more complete computer scientist than I ever been.
My theory colleagues left me in absolute awe! Being surrounded by the creativity and brilliance of a unique collection of young scientists was such a rush. I initiated Windows on Theory because I thought that this rush must be shared with everyone. I hope that the readers of this blog got a glimpse of the breadth and depth of my theory colleagues. I am confident that they will make many departments and research groups much better in the following months and years. My only regret is every free minute I didn't spend learning from these wonderful colleagues and friends.
My email for now will be email@example.com, so drop me a line.
Congratulations to MacArthur Fellowship
My hearty congratulations to MacArthur Fellowship for handing down the right decision and naming Craig Gentry its fellow, better known as a genius. What a truly deserving winner! As the readers of this blog know full well, Craig has done seminal work in cryptography – time and time again. In his prize-winning Ph.D. work in 2009 Craig achieved what many had considered to be impossible – fully-homomorphic encryption. In short three years he (with co-authors, Sanjam Garg and Shai Halevi) proposed another object – a cryptographic multilinear map whose existence I'd been willing to bet against. Last year Craig (with several more co-authors) constructed an obfuscation mechanism with two amazing properties: it looks impossibly difficult to achieve and useless for any cryptographic applications. Both statements – you see the pattern here – are wrong. Indistinguishability obfuscation, as it has become known, quite plausibly exists and we are still in the process of grasping its true potential.
FOCS 2014 program is online
The FOCS program is now online here.
Congratulations to Yin Tat Lee and Aaron Sidford for winning the best paper and the best student paper awards for their paper "Solving Linear Programs in O˜(√rank) Iterations and Faster Algorithms for Maximum Flow". They made an important advance in the theory of interior point methods by showing that you can actually converge faster, and match the non-constructive iteration-bound of Nesterov and Nemirovsky, if you modify on the fly the path the algorithm is taking. On top of that (and with a lot of extra work) they showed that these ideas can yield faster algorithms for Max-Flow in a broad range of parameters. It's always nice to see how trying to solve one problem such as Max-Flow can often yield unexpected payoffs in areas that at first sight may seem unrelated (Max-Cut is another great example of this phenomenon) .
Of course, as I and some others mentioned, there are many other great papers in the conference, and the workshop/tutorial day is looking very good too. The schedule is also perhaps a bit saner this time around, with a bit less parallelism, and somewhat longer breaks than usual, so I am hoping to see many of this blog's readers in Philadelphia in October! (Deadline for early registration and discounted hotel rate is September 22nd.)
Keeping up with the times, FOCS now has a more mobile-friendly website (thanks to Wolfgang Richter that gave me access to the codebase of the SOSP 2013 website) and even a twitter account ( @focs14 ). We might even have an app – more on that later.
ICM 2014: Mark Braverman on interactive information theory
[Boaz's note: videos of all ICM 2014 talks, including Mark's talk discussed below, as well as the talks of Candes and Bhargava I mentioned before are available online here. In particular, if you still don't know how one constructs a fully homomorphic encryption scheme then you should (a) be ashamed of yourself and (b) watch Craig Gentry's talk to see a description of a simple scheme due to him, Sahai and Waters that will close this gap in your education. ]
Guest post by Mark Braverman
My survey covers recent developments in the area of interactive coding theory. This area has been quite active recently, with at least 4 papers on the topic appearing in the next FOCS. This level of activity means that parts of the survey will probably become obsolete within a few years (in fact, I had to rewrite parts of it when the separation result by Ganor, Kol, and Raz was announced in April. [See also this newer result that was posted after Mark sent me his text –Boaz]
The basic premise of interactive coding theory is extending the reach of classical coding and information theory to interactive scenarios. Broadly speaking "coding" encompasses compression (aka noiseless coding), error correction (over both adversarial and randomized channels), and cryptography. The latter does not really fit with the rest of the agenda, since cryptographic protocols have always been interactive.
The interactive version of noiseless coding is communication complexity – and taking the information-theoretic view to it yields information complexity, which behaves as the interactive analogue of Shannon's entropy. The analogue of Shannon's Noiseless Coding Theorem holds in the interactive case. To what extent interactive compression is possible (i.e. to what extent the interactive analogue of Huffman Coding exists) is a wide-open problem.
On the noisy side, much progress has been made in the adversarial model, starting with the seminal work of Schulman in the 1990s. Many problems surrounding the interactive analogue of Shannon's channel capacity, even for simple channels, such as the Binary Symmetric Channel remain open.
For the current state of affairs (surveyed for a Math audience) see my ICM survey which is available here.
The Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at UC Berkeley invites applications for Research Fellowships for the research program on Cryptography that will take place in Summer, 2015. These Fellowships are open to outstanding junior scientists (at most 6 years from PhD by 1 May, 2015).
Further details and application instructions can be found at simons.berkeley.edu/fellows-summer2015. General information about the Simons Institute can be found at simons.berkeley.edu, and about the Cryptography program at simons.berkeley.edu/programs/crypto2015.
Deadline for applications: 30 September, 2014.
Updates from ICM 2014
This week I'm at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) 2014 in Seoul, and thought I would post a quick update from a TCS perspective. See Tim Gowers's blog for a much more comprehensive account. There are several other TCS folks here, and I hope some would also post their impressions and recommendations as well.
For TCS the big news was of course that Subhash Khot won the Nevalinna award for his work on the Unique Games Conjecture. As Omer mentioned, this is a research topic that I am extremely interested in, and so am very happy about this well deserved choice. Subhash also gave a fantastic talk, which I highly recommend. Like many others, I was also excited to witness the first time a female mathematician, Maryam Mirzakhani, is awarded the Fields medal and hope we won't have to wait too long for the first female Nevalinna medalist.
All the plenary talks were videotaped, and I believe that sooner or later they would be available on this website, so I thought I would mention a few talks that TCS folks might want to look at. Every (plenary or section) talk also had an accompanying survey paper, which again I hope would be available online in the not too far future. (Some people, like many of the TCS folks, already posted the papers on the arxiv/eccc etc.., and I hope we will see some more blog posts about it.)
Two talks that I particularly recommend are Emmanuel Candes's talk on the "Mathematics of sparsity" and Manjul Bhargava's talk on "Rational points on elliptic and hyperelliptic curves".
Candes's talk was an amazing exposition of the power and importance of algorithms. He showed how efficient algorithms can actually make the difference in treating kids with cancer! Specifically, one of the challenges in taking MRI images is that traditionally they take two minutes to make during which the patient cannot make a single breath. You can imagine that this would be dangerous to nearly impossible to achieve for young children. The crucial difference is made by using a sublinear-samples algorithm (i.e. compressed sensing), which allows to recover the images from much fewer samples, reducing the time to about 15 seconds. Another approach of dealing with this issue is to allow the patient to breath but try to algorithmically correct for this movement. Here what they use [as far as I recall] is a decomposition to a low rank plus a sparse matrix which they achieve via a semidefinite program related to the famous Geomans-Williamson max cut algorithm. Interestingly, the latter question is also related to the well known lower bound question of matrix rigidity, and the parameters they achieve roughly correspond to the best known values for this question– somewhat (extremely) speculatively, one can wonder if perhaps an improved rigidity lower bound would end up being useful for this application..
Hearing Candes's talk I couldn't help thinking that some of those advances could perhaps have been made sooner if the TCS community had closer ties to the applied math community, and realized the relevance of concepts such as property testing and tool such as the Geomans-Williamson to these kind of questions. Such missed opportunities are unfortunate for our community and (given the applications) also to society at large, which is another reason you should always try to go to talks in other areas..
Bhargava's talk just blew me away. I can't remember when I went to a talk in an area so far from my own and felt that I learned so much. I can't recommend it enough and of course given the use of elliptic curves in cryptography, its not completely unrelated to TCS. I will not attempt any technical description of the talk [just watch it, or read the accompanying paper] but let me mention a TCS-related theme, which actually seems to appear in the works of some of the other Fields medalists as well.
One example of the "unreasonable effectiveness" of algorithms is that they often capture our notion of "mathematical understanding". For example, a priori, the fact that the clique problem is NP hard, does not mean that we should not be able to figure out the clique number of a particular graph such as the Cayley graph, but it turns out that this actually a real obstacle to do it. Similarly, in other areas of mathematics, whether it is figuring out the solution of a differential equation, or the number of points on an elliptic curve, a priori the non existence of an algorithm should not preclude us from answering the quesiton, but it often does. (I am deliberately conflating here the notion of non-existence of an algorithm and the notion of the non existence of an efficient algorithm; indeed for any finite problem, there is some trivial brute-force algorithm, but the existence of it does not help at all in achieving mathematical understanding.)
While we have a difficult time determining the clique number of any specific graph, we do have many tools to determine the clique number of a random graph. Such problems are still by no means trivial: e.g., rigorously determining the precise satisfiability threshold of a random 3SAT is still open. Bhargava tackled the problem of trying to determine the number of rational points on a random elliptic curve. In particular he proved that with some nonzero constant probability this number is infinite, and with some nonzero constant probability the number is zero [at least I think so; perhaps its only guaranteed to be finite]. This can be viewed as progress towards the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, which is one of the Clay math problems.
One interpretation of the "natural proofs" barrier is that to make progress on lower bounds, we need to develop more "non constructive" proof techniques, ideally going beyond those that apply only for "random" objects. Perhaps some of these advanced probabilistic tools can still be used in this effort. Also, there have been some "non constructive" results showing that deterministic objects have a certain "pseudo-random" property even in a setting where we don't have algorithms to certify that a random object has that property. In particular, Bourgain (see this exposition by Rao) showed that a graph somewhat similar to the Payley graph has clique size at most even though we still don't have an algorithm for the planted clique problem that can certify that a random graph has clique number .
Two other plenary talks that I liked at ICM were János Kollár's talk on "The structure of algebraic varieties" and James Arthur's talk on "L-functions and automorphic representations". I can't say I understood much of the latter, but I am now slightly less terrified of the Langland's program (though I still wouldn't like to meet it in a dark alley..). While I also couldn't follow much of the former, it still gave me a overview of the effort of classifying algebraic varieties, which I could imagine would have possible TCS applications.

WALTHAM, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 08/06/14 -- CloudLock, the leading cloud information security provider, today reported the company grew its revenue in the first half of 2014 by 114 percent compared to the first half of 2013. CloudLock doubled the number of employees over the last 12 months and now has more than 80 employees. The first quarter represented CloudLock's 12th consecutive quarter of record revenue. Additionally, the company is now listed on the Salesforce1 AppExchange with its CloudLock for Salesforce product and received an investment from salesforce.com in June 2014.
Partnerships and Acquisitions
CloudLock's strong Q2 momentum underlines the company's commitment to being the security fabric for all public cloud applications. CloudLock launched its offering for Salesforce in November 2013 and rapidly gained momentum with additional solutions for Salesforce.
"We are coming off of a very successful first half of 2014 and have no plans to slow down," said Gil Zimmermann, CEO at CloudLock. "We will certainly continue to carry this momentum well into the rest of the year."
CloudLock also strengthened its existing partnership with Google, being named as one of the first Google Apps Premier Technology Partners. The Premier Technology Partner recognition is reserved for companies that have satisfied a number of crucial requirements and will allow CloudLock to continue to raise the bar on the level of support on the Google Apps platform.
CloudLock also acquired the intellectual property of Innovode Ltd, the Bristol, UK company behind Innovode Armor, in June 2014. As well, CloudLock hired the key team members behind the Innovode Armor product, an integrated encryption solution for Google Drive. Similar to CloudLock, Innovode focused on solving critical security challenges for organizations, deploying public cloud applications. The Innovode team, led by co-founders Howard Snart and Peter Spellward, has years of experience in the field of data loss prevention (DLP) and compliance. Snart and Spellward pioneered market-leading products for Orchestria and CA prior to founding Innovode.
Key Customer Wins
CloudLock added a significant number of new, noteworthy customers and worked with several current customers to strategically broaden their use of the Company's offerings in the second quarter and now exceeds 700 customers worldwide with more than 5 million users under management.
New and existing customers with significant transactions in Q2 included, Banesco Banco Universal, Damballa, HBO Latin America, Columbia University, Whirlpool, ACI Worldwide, The Museum of Modern Art, Frederick County, National Defense University and Middlesex Hospital.
Delivering rich behavioral insight based on deep content inspection, CloudLock's cloud security offering is the only multi-cloud solution in the market that detects, classifies and protects sensitive information in the cloud without any impact on end users. Delivering results in minutes, CloudLock is a cloud solution that doesn't require any hardware (physical or virtualized) such as security gateways, which can represent a single point of failure and latency for enterprises.
"We've fully embraced the cloud to transform our business, and partnering with CloudLock has allowed us to more securely leverage the power of cloud applications like Salesforce and Google Apps," said Joe Fuller, CIO of Dominion Enterprises.

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Murray ready for toughest test yet
World No 3 knows not to underestimate the all-round game of his friend Stanislas Wawrinka in today's fourth-round match on Centre Court
Monday 29 June 2009
With James Bond on his side, Andy Murray should not fear anybody. Sean Connery is one of the world No 3's biggest fans and Murray yesterday interrupted his preparations for his fourth-round match here today against Stanislas Wawrinka to take a call from the actor, who wanted to congratulate him on his emphatic three-sets victory over Viktor Troicki the previous evening. "Much nicer than someone trying to sell you a phone upgrade," Murray later told his website in typically understated fashion.
The 22-year-old Scot was clearly in relaxed mood both on and off the practice court. Having made an unduly early start after his dog, Maggie, leapt on his bed when he was fast asleep– "She's not bothered by Wimbledon," he said – Murray spent a good part of his lunchtime practice session playing head tennis with members of his entourage. On most of the other practice courts players were engaged in some seriously heavy-duty hitting.
Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam event which pauses for breath on the middle Sunday, underlining the feeling that the second week here is like a new beginning. Sixteen players are left in both the men's and women's singles and everyone plays today, with Murray in his customary role as the third match on Centre Court.
Does this week feel like a new start? "People say that," Murray said. "It is a little bit different for the guys who have had a couple of days off. For them they've got a bit more of a break, but I'll prepare for this match the way I've done for the other ones. The only difference is that the matches are obviously going to get a bit tougher the further you go in the tournament." Wawrinka, a 24-year-old Swiss, should provide Murray with his stiffest test yet. Although the world No 18 prefers to play on clay, he reached this stage here last year and has a decent all-round game. He came to the All England Club as the man who had finished off Rafael Nadal's chances of defending his title.
Wawrinka beat the Spaniard in an exhibition event at Hurlingham three days before the start of Wimbledon, after which Nadal announced that his knee problem had not improved sufficiently for him to play here. Murray and Wawrinka, who are good friends and frequently practise together, have played each other seven times, but although Wawrinka has beaten him on three occasions the statistic is misleading in terms of their match-up here. Two of Wawrinka's wins were on clay, the first of them in Murray's debut Davis Cup singles rubber four years ago, and the Scot suffered an ankle injury during the third, in Miami in 2006.
They have met twice in the last 12 months, Murray winning on both occasions, most recently in the fourth round of last year's US Open.
"He's a very solid all-court player," Murray said. "He's got a solid serve and moves well. He's good off the baseline. He doesn't come to the net too much, but he won the Olympic gold medal in doubles, so he can obviously volley reasonably well when he does. He does everything well. He doesn't have one shot in particular that's a huge weakness. I'm going to have to play a tough match to beat him."
Wawrinka is a naturally aggressive player and believes he will need to attack whenever possible and maintain his recent improvement on his serve. What did he think was the key to beating Murray? "I think you need to play your best match," he said. "In the past 12 months he has been playing very well. He's No 3 in the world and playing incredibly, so you just need to be focused on your game. If my serve is here, I have a chance to do some good work."
Murray prefers playing later in the day and loves playing on Centre Court, which is a good job as this will be his 14th match there in succession. The last time he played anywhere else at Wimbledon was against Radek Stepanek on No 1 Court four years ago.
"You can get into a nice routine of playing on the same court, at the same time," Murray said. "You prepare the same for every match. It's always nice playing third. The crowds are very good. The atmosphere's been great.
"They know tennis here. With each match obviously there's slightly more importance each time. They get behind me a little bit more. In the first match, when I did lose a set against [Robert] Kendrick, they got behind me when they needed to. Every time I've been down in break points or down in games they've always been very good. I've noticed the difference in the matches."
He added: "I like the respect during the points for both the players. It's always pretty much silent when you're hitting serves here. When you go to the US Open there's always noise. For me it's always that quietness that's made it special to me. You can tell all the focus is on what's going on at the court.
"It makes it easier to steady yourself sometimes. You just take your time, even though you know the whole crowd's there. They understand the importance of the tournament, of each match and of the big points."
Murray insisted he was not thinking beyond his next match. "I'll just have to play my game and play it very well," he said. "I need to make sure I'm playing good tennis. I'm playing smart and serving well. Then I can win. I can't afford to worry about who I might be playing in the quarters or semi-finals. If I take my eye off the ball against someone like Stan I'm going to lose. I just need to focus on that match and make sure I do what I've been doing so far in the tournament."
Has he been affected by the growing interest in his matches of the media and public? "The hype makes absolutely zero difference at all to the way you perform on court because it's hype. It's what everybody else is saying. It's not what I'm saying. It's what the press are writing and people are saying to me. I understand the position that I'm in. I need to play my best to win. I'm going to try and do my best to do that."

Indians in UAE celebrate Republic Day
Corruption and women's rights set tone for debate on the occasion
- Image Credit: Zarina Fernandes/ Gulfnews
- Students of Indian High School perform during the 64th Republic Day Celebrations in Dubai.
Abu Dhabi/Dubai: Expatriates from India in the UAE turned out in their hundreds yesterday to celebrate the nation's 64th Republic Day.
The Republic Day commemorates the adoption of the constitution of India in 1950. January 26 stands for the day in 1930 when the Declaration of Indian Independence was passed.
The official celebrations saw M.K. Lokesh, India's ambassador to the UAE, unfurling India's Tricolour to the tune of the national anthem and consul general Sanjay Verma hoisting the Indian flag in Dubai, at the Indian High School.
Both the events began with the diplomats extending their greetings to all Indian expatriates and reading out the Indian President Pranab Mukherjee's address to the nation on the occasion, followed by cultural programmes.
In his speech, Mukherjee said it was time for the nation to reset its moral compass. "On our 64th Republic Day, there may be some reason for concern, but none for despair," he said alluding to the rape and murder of a young medical student that shook the nation's collective conscience, about tensions along the Line of Control and about violence by Maoist rebels.
Outlining India's achievements over the past six decades, Mukherjee said the economic growth rate has more than tripled and the literacy rate quadrupled, in addition to significant reduction in the incidence of poverty. India had also become a net exporter of foodgrain after attaining self-sufficiency and made big strides in terms of gender equality, he said.
He also highlighted the role of education in eliminating the gaps that lead to social inequality.
Addressing the gathering in Dubai, consul general Sanjay Verma called on the expatriate community, especially the youth, to play their part in the nation-building process. "India is going through great social, political and economic change. The change is going to be faster than ever before, which means we have more to do in the coming years, we have to be a part of the nation-building process," he said.
Verma urged youngsters to read the Indian constitution to understand what the nation hopes to achieve and also to take pride in what they represent.
Expatriates also found the occasion just right to focus on some of the main challenges India faces today, including the protection of women's rights and the need to root out corruption.
"Corruption is the most worrying issue for me. Corrupt politicians should be kept out of the election process, and should never be allowed to be part of our governing bodies," said Stany Gonsalves.
Vidya Ram also urged action on corruption. "It should be stubbed from the grass root levels," she said.
Kiran Furtado spoke about the need to shed pretences. "We have lots of hypocrisies which we should get out from. We say we are a democracy, but are we? We talk about women's rights, but do we have them? We say we have the best educated, but do these brains stay in India? We speak of religious tolerance, but how much of this do we see in our society?" she asked. "Once we get out of these hypocrisies, we can identity what we really want to achieve and set a direction for the youth to follow."
Protection of women was the burning issue for Anurag Tiwari. "Education alone can guarantee better rights for women across all levels of the society," he said.

Afghanistan seeks India's help as West pullout nears
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India will step up training of the Afghan police and military after a request on Monday by President Hamid Karzai, who also urged Indian businesses to invest in his battle-weary nation as it gears up for the departure of NATO troops.
(Karzai in India: see slideshow here)
The extra help is likely to be welcomed by the United States, which sees India as a stabilizing power in South Asia. But it may unnerve Pakistan, which frets about losing influence in neighbouring Afghanistan.
"We do want to expand that as required and wished by Afghanistan. We will respond," said Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid when asked about the security programme following a lecture given by the Afghan president in New Delhi.
In June, U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta called on India to do more to support both the Afghan economy and security forces as Western nations prepare to end their combat missions there in 2014.
India and Afghanistan reached an agreement last year for some senior Afghan officers to receive training in India. A few hundred police and army officers have so far benefited from the programme, an Indian official said. Khurshid said India had also provided some "vehicle and mobility equipment".
India is worried that a Taliban resurgence after 2014 would weaken its own security and wants to step carefully to support the Afghan government and economy without triggering countermeasures from Pakistan, which is fearful of being hemmed in by its larger neighbour.
Khurshid said India would only gradually develop its programme to train military officials and police in step with Afghan requirements.
"I don't think we should do anything in haste that could alarm people," he said.
Perhaps conscious of the sensitivity of a larger Indian role in Afghanistan's defence, Karzai and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made only passing mention of security issues in statements on Monday, instead emphasising the importance of economic cooperation to stabilize the fractious region.
"President Karzai and I agreed to intensify our cooperation with a special focus on deepening our economic engagement in areas ranging from agriculture and small businesses to mining and infrastructure," Singh said.
India has pledged $2 billion in development aid to Afghanistan and is building roads and railways that could help extract Afghan minerals through Iran. Last year a group of Indian companies won a bid to mine iron ore in Afghanistan.

U.S. 'kicks can' towards 'fiscal abyss': China's Xinhua
BEIJING (Reuters) - The last-minute U.S. deal over tax increases has fixed one problem, but the world's largest economy must get to grips with a budget deficit that threatens not a "fiscal cliff" but a "fiscal abyss", China's Xinhua news agency said on Wednesday.
The state news agency said in a commentary, issued in English on its website, that while the United States was clearly the dominant economic power, it "simply cannot live on borrowed prosperity forever", and its politicians seemed reluctant to tackle its total debt of about $16 trillion.
"In a democracy like the United States, tax increases and spending cuts, the exact dose of medicine needed to cure its chronic debt disease, have long proved hugely unpopular among voters," Xinhua said.
"So the politicians have chosen to kick the can down the road again and again. But as we all know, the can will never disappear. Sometime and somewhere, you might trip over it and fall hard on the ground, or in the U.S. case, into an abyss you can never come out of."
China has a strong interest in a healthy U.S. economy. It sits on the world's biggest pile of foreign exchange reserves, worth $3.3 trillion, and as much as 70 percent of the holdings are invested in U.S. dollar assets, including U.S. Treasuries, according to analysts.
The United States is also a major export market for China.
Global stock markets rose on Wednesday on relief that the U.S. had passed measures to avert the huge tax increases and spending cuts that would have pushed the economy into recession.
However, Xinhua also took aim at U.S. politicians, saying that if they came so close to falling off a cliff, "they are far less likely to reach a deal to help their country climb out of an abyss".
In separate commentaries Xinhua published on Tuesday on the fiscal cliff debate, it called on the United States to live up to its global economic responsibilities and also blamed its poorly functioning political system for the mess.
Such commentaries are not policy statements as such, but can be read as a reflection of Chinese government thinking.
Wednesday's commentary can be found here
