| Abstract | Federation scenarios for experimentally driven research usually involve resources offered by a diverse pool of organizations. Federation can be done by a resource broker, which has no resources of its own. Instead the broker matches customer's requested services and providers resources based on the SLA required by the end-user. The end-user has no knowledge that the broker does not control the resources. This work considers the concepts of modeling and meta-modeling to define a resource broker and to specify federation scenarios by applying the Domain Specific Modeling (DSM) paradigm. Moreover, we acknowledge the fact that resource models already exist and we adopt model to model transformations. We argue that defining a resource broker meta-model, focusing on the federation domain and applying DSM practices is necessary in order to: i) create formal description of a resource broker and its resource providers with its offered services and resources, ii) have valid, comprehensible and unambiguous configurations that support federation scenarios, iii) simplify the combination of services and resources from third parties that are non-conformant to the meta-model and iv) have common definitions and understanding by the resource federation domain, thus being efficient and practicable. We present a family of Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) having the meta-model as their abstract syntax, for defining model entities, describing a resource broker and federation scenarios between organizations. Additionally, prototype tooling supports the DSLs and the proposed framework. |

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.
