| Abstract | The deployment of gigabit-per-second networks; the development of Grid computing, peer-to-peer applications, and Web services; the spread of wireless networks and pervasive computing; the development of autonomic, self-monitoring systs; and the adoption of open standards that enable tighter integration of IT systs and business processes within companies and across companies are ushering in the new paradigm of open standards-based, distributed computing. Companies will be able to integrate their corporate IT systs into grids, making it far easier to move data within the company and fostering collaboration between ployees. In time, it is likely that companies and organizations will link their networked systs with those of business partners and with "utility grids" and data centers run by third parties. One barrier to the adoption of this model is that customers may doubt that their personal data can be protected when it is moving between multiple servers and storage systs scattered across the country or even around the world. In Canada and other countries this is becoming a serious policy issue and there have been proposals to ban out-of-country outsourcing of government IT services.In this changing landscape, today's privacy solutions whether technologies, services, or regulations will be unable to meet the needs of either individuals or corporations. Entirely new classes of products and services are badly needed. The paper explores new types of privacy-enhancing technologies to address ployees' and customers' privacy concerns. Some questions to be examined by this talk include: How will privacy and expectations of privacy change where distributed computing is commonplace?How can privacy and transparency be built into distributed computing systs?What can governments do to protect privacy without inhibiting the growth of distributed computing (e.g. virtualization, Web services, Grid computing, peer-to-peer applications)?. |

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.
