| Abstract | Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS) requires users to be motivated to participate. However, concerns regarding energy consumption and privacy—among other things—may compromise their willingness to join such a crowd. Our preliminary observations and analysis of common MCS applications have shown that the data transfer in MCS applications may incur significant energy consumption due to the 3G connection setup. However, if data are transferred in parallel with a traditional phone call, then such transfer can be done almost “for free”: with only an insignificant additional amount of energy required to piggy-back the data—usually incoming task assignments and outgoing sensor results—on top of the call. Here, we present an Energy-Efficient Mobile Crowdsensing (EEMC) framework where task assignments and sensing results are transferred in parallel with phone calls. The main objective, and the principal contribution of this article, is an MCS task assignment scheme that guarantees that a minimum number of anonymous participants return sensor results within a specified time frame, while also minimizing the waste of energy due to redundant task assignments and considering privacy concerns of participants. Evaluations with a large-scale real-world phone call dataset show that our proposed $\textit{EEMC}$ framework outperforms the baseline approaches, and it can reduce overall energy consumption in data transfer by 54--66% when compared to the 3G-based solution. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
