| Abstract | We consider a scenario in which wireless users want to connect to the Internet using one of several available network access opportunities, possibly using different radio technologies. We propose a distributed cognitive network access scheme with the aim of providing the best quality of service with respect to both radio link and core network performance and user application requirements. Knowledge of the service quality experienced by active connections is shared, and prospective users use Fuzzy Logic techniques to process cross-layer communication quality metrics and to estimate the expected transport-layer performance. These estimates are compared to the Quality of Service requirements of the application using Fuzzy Decision Making techniques to choose the most suitable access opportunity. This scheme naturally fits into the recently proposed Cognitive Network paradigm in that it defines a cognition process leveraging on end-to-end and cross-layer performance evaluation techniques as well as information sharing among users; moreover, it offers a significant amount of flexibility and extensibility, thanks to its modularity and its independence from the particular technology and application being used. The proposed scheme is shown to outperform state-of-the-art solutions in several multi-technology and multi-application scenarios, while at the same time achieving similar performance to application-specific omniscient schemes that we introduce in this paper as a benchmark. |

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.
