| Abstract | Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are becoming a viable tool for many monitoring applications. These applications may be of critical nature where the transportation of the information of events from the region of interest to some base station or sink is crucial, where the data loss cannot be tolerated. In the other direction, the information (for the purpose of control or management) sent from the base station to the sensor nodes can be very sensitive to loss as well. For example, in re-tasking sensors nodes, sending a program image to them is challenging. A loss of a single message, associated with the program code, would leave the image useless and the whole re-tasking process would fail. To deal with this issue, a reliable transport protocol is needed that can guarantee the delivery of packets and can cater to the special needs and characteristics of WSN. In this paper, we discuss the importance and the need of the transport layer protocol for wireless sensor networks and review some existing work. We also propose to implement the transport layer protocol on two-tiered wireless sensor network, a clustering-based architecture where the cluster-heads, more powerful in resources and features, can deal with the responsibilities of a transport layer protocol, and can provide the reliability in data transmission |

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.
