| Abstract | Welcome to the 2016 ACM Internet Measurement Conference (IMC) in Santa Monica, California. It has been our pleasure to oversee the tremendous efforts volunteered by our technical program committee and other individuals in shaping this year's technical program. We hope that you will find the papers selected for the technical program stimulating and thought-provoking, and that you enjoy the conference! IMC 2016 received 184 submissions, and we accepted 46 papers, for an acceptance ratio of 25%. This year, we explicitly encouraged TPC members to evaluate short papers and full papers as separate submission categories, resulting in roughly 25% acceptance rates in both categories (21/80 and 25/104, respectively), a marked departure from previous IMC programs. We hope that additional short papers enliven the program by adding more visibility into promising work at an earlier stage. The IMC 2016 TPC comprised 39 members from academia and industry, reflecting the diversity of our community, and spanning the wide range of topics present in this year's submissions and accepted papers. The members of the TPC wrote three first-round reviews for all submissions, as well as three or more second-round reviews for the top 108 papers. Thus, we had at least 6 reviews for each of the 73 papers that we discussed in the TPC meeting, 9 of which were "quick-accepted" without discussion. Most second-round papers received significant online discussion between PC members prior to the TPC meeting. Almost all of the TPC members attended the TPC meeting in Boston in person, for a long day of energetic discussion. Those who did not attend in person participated via Skype. We strove, as TPC chairs, to ensure that all 73 papers received full and fair discussion, and we encouraged the TPC to advocate for papers containing interesting ideas, even if imperfectly executed. Each of the 46 accepted papers was shepherded by a member of the TPC to help the authors improve their final versions. A new focus of this year's TPC deliberations was ethical considerations. Papers which, for example, had conducted experiments with end-users, had sought approval from an IRB, or which had performed measurements in an ethical gray area, as judged by TPC members, were reviewed by an ethics subcommittee drawn from the TPC. This subcommittee review, which was complementary to the technical review, sought to determine whether the work complied with our community's (unwritten) ethical standards. No papers were rejected on ethical grounds, but several received guidance in shepherding. |

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.
