| Abstract | Significant technical progress in the computer science and networking, as well as the rapid increase in users' requirements for computational resources and diverse services, is leading to the gradual opening of Grid computing, which is mainly a scientific- or business-oriented application, to the consumer market. Such a scenario, often referred to as the consumer Grid, is a major challenge because of the potentially large number of dynamic resources and users (perhaps millions), high frequency of job requests, and considerable heterogeneity in resource types in the consumer market. These features will lead to several potential issues when consumer Grid services are deployed with existing techniques. In this paper, we analyze the limitations of current network infrastructures, resource discovery and management schemes and end-to-end transmission control protocols (TCP) that prevent the wide deployment of consumer Grid services. Then, in order to address these issues, we propose an integrated optical burst switching (OBS)/wavelength switched optical network (WSON) infrastructure assisted by a self-organized resource discovery and management scheme to support the consumer Grid. In addition, we review several alternative TCP protocols and compare their performance in term of throughput and fairness to select the most suitable TCP protocol for end-to-end Grid data transmission. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that these solutions have been proposed and investigated for the consumer Grid, and more importantly, all the proposed methodologies are demonstrated and evaluated on an actual OBS/WSON testbed with both control and data planes, allowing the verification of their feasibility and effectiveness, and obtaining valuable insights for deploying the proposed solutions into real consumer Grid networks. |

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.
