| Abstract | In previous years, both SOSP, held in the odd years, and the SIGOPS European Workshop, held in even years, have tended to focus on operating systems in the small. There were many papers on microkernels, nanokernels, and picokernels. As a consequence, some people were beginning to get the feeling that SIGOPS was in a rut, looking only inward instead of outward.With the enormous popularity of the World Wide Web in the past several years, it is becoming increasingly apparent that a system like the Web brings up many traditional operating systems issues (e.g., naming, communication, and replication), as well as new ones (e.g., code and data mobility, scaling to a billion users, and global resource management). In an attempt to redirect SIGOPS towards this new and challenging frontier, we have selected "Systems Support for Worldwide Applications" as the theme of this workshop, perhaps as a bit of an experiment.Although some people were a little nervous about such a change of course, the experiment was a great success. Seventy-six papers, from 19 countries, were submitted, nearly all of them on the workshop theme. This represents an increase of more than 40 percent over the Sixth European Workshop. Each paper was read by at least five reviewers and judged not only on content, but on relevance to the theme. Of these papers, 43 were selected for inclusion in this Proceedings. Of these 43 papers, 21 were selected for oral presentation at the workshop, in order to leave plenty of time for discussion, a panel, a debate, and a special summary session. |

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.
