| Abstract | We are seeing a significant shift in the types and characteristics of computing devices that are commonly used. Today, more smartphones are sold than personal computers. An area of rapid growth are also cloud systems; and our everyday lives are invaded by sensors like smart meters and electronic tickets. The days when most computing resources were managed directly by a computer's operating system are over---data and computation is distributed, and devices are typically always connected via the Internet. In light of this shift, it is important to revisit the basic security properties we desire of computing systems and the mechanisms that we use to provide them. A building block of most of the security we enjoy in today's systems is access control. This panel will examine the challenges we face in adapting the access control models, techniques, and tools produced thus far to today's and tomorrow's computing environments. Key characteristics of these new systems that may require our approach to access control to change is that in many (e.g., cloud) systems users do not directly control their data; that a vast population of users operating mobile and other new devices has very little education in their use; and that cyber-physical systems permeate our environment to the point where they are often invisible to their users. Access control comprises enforcement systems, specification languages, and policy-management tools or approaches. In each of these areas the shifting computing landscape leaves us examining how current technology can be applied to new contexts or looking for new technology to fill the gap. Enforcement of access-control policy based on a trusted operating system, for example, does not cleanly translate to massively distributed, heterogeneous computing environments; to environments with many devices that are minimally administered or administered with minimal expertise; and to potentially untrusted clouds that hold sensitive data and computations that belong to entities other than the cloud owner. What technologies or system components should be the building blocks of enforcement in these settings?. |

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.
