| Abstract | Service discovery is very useful in pervasive computing environments. A service discovery architecture based on anycast is proposed. A well- known anycast address is defined first, which stands for a group of directory servers supporting service discovery. Each node in pervasive environment determines whether it is qualified to be a directory server in accordance with its capability, such as its memory, energy, or location stability. Qualified node announces that it serves the well-known anycast address and then begins to listen and cache service register messages from other nodes. A node supplying a service sends register messages to the well-known anycast address. The message is routed the nearest one of directory servers by an underlying anycast routing protocol. When a node wants to get some service information, it sends query messages to the anycast address, too. The message is also routed to the nearest directory. The directory replies in accordance with the information cached or obtained from other directories. With anycast, network load caused by service discovery is reduced dramatically, which results in scalability. The architecture is fully distributed, which does not depend on any central point. Therefore the architecture is a good candidate solution for service discovery in pervasive environment. |

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.
