| Abstract | Public safety organizations need robust communication networks to transmit different kind of sensor information. These networks must be reliable even when all infrastructure has been destroyed. Wireless multi-hop networks (such as Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs), Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), and Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs)) are supposed to meet the requirements of (1) spontaneous deployment, (2) being independent of any kind of existing infrastructure, and (3) robustness in the sense of self-organization and self-healing by their very definition. These networks have been a topic in research for more than a decade now. Recently, real-world tests and deployments provide valuable insights concerning challenges and future research directions. There are different mesh and WSN testbeds (e.g., [4, 9, 10]) enabling the research community to run tests in static real-world networks. However, concerning public safety requirements, there are significant differences: (1) No spontaneous deployment, (2) no or at least no mobility typical for public safety, (3) no typical applications and traffic for public safety scenarios. Due to these characteristics, developing algorithms and protocols for public safety scenarios and deploying public safety networks is a huge challenge. To overcome this challenge, we developed a prototype based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware. The prototype comprises typical public safety application and is spontaneously deployable. Furthermore, this prototype enables us to perform evaluations with real public safety endusers, e.g. by deploying the prototype in maneuvers. In our demo, we will demonstrate our COTS-based prototype. |

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.
