Variable stars can be monitored through observing campaigns which coordinate multi-site telescopes at various longitudes. A new practice is now being developed, involving devoted networks of robotic telescopes. We will review these two technologies and will emphasize the NORT (Network of Oriental Robotic Telescopes) project, which we are promoting in Middle Eastern countries.
