| Abstract | The Seventh IEEE Workshop on Hot Topics in Operating Systems was held on March 29-30 1999 at the Rio Rico Resort & Country Club, south of Tucson, Arizona. The General Chair, Peter Druschel, and the Local Arrangements Chair, John Hartman, had gone to considerable effort to make the operation of the workshop smooth and pleasant for the participants. The secluded desert locale, the effect of brilliant sunshine and blue skies on winter-jaded northerners, and the enthusiasm and energy of the participants all combined to offer an ideal setting for two days of technical exchange and out-of-the-box thinking. A variety of outdoor activities awaited participants who arrived early, and a kickoff reception on Sunday evening enabled participants to get to know each other before the technical meetings began.What follows is a summary of the discussions that took place during the workshop. It is meant to be a supplement, not a substitute, for the papers in the proceedings. Rather than producing a verbatim transcript, I've tried to focus on those interactions that seemed most insightful, controversial or evoked most response from the audience. Any such report must, by its very nature, be subjective. I've tried hard to be objective, but I'm sure that are some places where my personal biases show through. My apologies in advance if you attended the workshop and your favorite comment, question or discussion isn't mentioned here. This material is based on detailed notes taken by four student volunteers (Gretta Bartels, Buck Krasic, Rajeev Balasubramonian, and Ben Fleis). They did an excellent job of taking detailed and complete notes: any errors or omissions in this digest are my responsibility, not theirs. |

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.
