| Abstract | The National Bureau of Standards has three primary goals in computer networking. 1. To develop networking and protocol standards which meet U.S. Government and industry requirements and will be implemented in off-the-shelf, commercial products. 2. To develop testing methodologies to support the development and implementation of computer network protocols; and 3. To assist Government and industry users in the application of advanced networking technologies, and computer and communication manufacturers, in the implementation of standard protocols. To support these objectives, NBS has laboratory activities where prototypes of draft protocol standards are implemented and tested in a variety of communications environments (e.g. global networks, local networks, office systems networks), supporting different applications (e.g. file transfer, message processing), on difference kinds and sizes of computers. The primary purposes are to advance the state of the art in measurement methodologies for advanced computer networking technologies, and to determine protocol implementation correctness and performance. NBS views testing as a cooperative research effort and works with other agencies, private sector companies and other countries in the development of methodologies. At this time, this cooperation involves five network laboratories in other countries and over 20 computer manufacturers. The test methodologies developed at NBS are well documented and the testing tools themselves are developed with an objective of portability and made available to many organizations engaged in protocol development and implementations. Consistent with goals, NBS standards developments, research in testing methodologies, and technical assistance are characterized by direct industry/government cooperation and mutual support. |

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.
