| Abstract | Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are seen as an essential technology to support future Pervasive Computing Scenarios and 4G networks. In a MANET, efficient support of multipoint communications is essential in order to provide services like group audio and video conferencing, dissemination of data to a set of receivers or collaboration of a group of users. However, most of these interactive services have very strong requirements regarding delay and bandwidth. Controlling the end-to-end delay and maintaining low packet loss rate is vital to support interactive multimedia applications in MANETs. In this paper, we present QAMNet, an approach to improve the Quality of Service (QoS) for multicast communication in MANETs. We extend existing mesh based multicast routing protocols by introducing traffic prioritization, distributed resource probing and admission control mechanisms and adaptive rate control of non-real-time traffic based on Medium Access Control (MAC) layer feedback to maintain low delay and required throughput for real-time multicast flows. Simulation results show that, by reusing control messages already used by those protocols, our approach does not significantly increase control overhead nor state stored at nodes compared while it manages to increase packet delivery ratio and reduce latency for real-time traffic. |

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.
