| Abstract | Wireless mesh networks (WMN) is poised to be a cost-effective platform for many municipal applications in public safety, business and entertainment. In this paper we present WMN-based platform for content delivery within Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications. An example ITS application would be to deliver content used for vehicle route guidance in emergency evacuation situations. The characteristics of ITS applications of higher vehicle speeds and of the limited coverage of WMN (wi-fi) mesh router causes more frequent handoffs which complicates content delivery over wireless mesh networks. Frequent handoffs mandate smaller handoff delay. Using standard IEEE handoffs may cause unacceptable interruption in content delivery. We propose a service-oriented mobility management protocol (SMMP) for ITS content delivery. Within the protocol, content is considered as services described by XML metadata files. The protocol takes advantage of a hierarchical organization of WMN routers to reduce the handoff delay. The quasi-stationary nature of WMN mesh routers enables the detection of the sequence of routers that a vehicle will be in connection with. SMMP provides to the traveling vehicles cached MAC addresses of WMN mesh routers to communicate with. We evaluate the benefits of the proposed protocol and compared it to the traditional solutions using OMNET++ simulator. Our results show that using SMMP reduces handoff latencies and improves the overall network throughput at lower and higher vehicle speeds. |

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.
