| Abstract | In typical data grids large amounts of replicated data are stored all over the globe in different storage systems with access latencies ranging from seconds to hours. The task of a replica management system is not only to keep track of the replicas but also to select those replicas that can be accessed by an application program with a minimal response or transfer time. Most wide-area replication research focuses on network-based replica selection. However, our past experience with data grids has shown that often hierarchical storage systems are the main bottleneck rather than network links. This is due to the fact that access latencies of hierarchical storage systems can be of the order of seconds up to hours in case the data resides on a tape that is not mounted yet. We give an overview of our replica management framework called Reptor and a storage system cost estimator that is used. Furthermore, we give details on access estimation of file replicas that reside on hierarchical storage systems. The results show that the access estimates provide a good basis for a replica management system to perform efficient replica selection. |

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.
