| Abstract | It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2012 ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing -- PODC'12. This year's symposium continues its tradition of being the premier forum for presentation of research results in the area of theoretical distributed computing. During the years PODC has been the stage where many landmark results that have increased our understanding of this exciting and, in the Internet era, fundamental research endeavor have been presented. In the best tradition of theoretical discovery, the insights that have been provided have not only elucidated fundamental conceptual issues but also found their way in the real world of systems and applications. The mission of the symposium remains that of providing a high quality international forum for the timely dissemination and discussion of ideas at the frontier of current knowledge in the area of theoretical distributed computing. The call for papers attracted 142 submissions from the Americas, Asia, and Europe. The program committee met in Rome and accepted 35 papers and 26 brief announcements that cover a wide variety of topics. In addition, this year the program includes an industrial panel where colleagues from leading technological companies will share with us their experience with the challenges presented by real, large-scale distributed systems. The keynote speech will be by David Peleg, whose outstanding research record sets a gold standard for the field. Finally, this year PODC hosts the ceremony for the 2012 Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize. |

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.
