| Abstract | Summary form only given. While grid infrastructures can provide massive compute and data storage power, it is still an art to effectively harness the power of grid computing. Current application development for grid commonly requires the programmer to deal with many low level and complex details such as selecting software components on specific grid computers, mapping applications onto the grid, explicitly specify data transfer operations, etc. In this talk we present the ASKALON environment whose goal is to create an invisible grid for both grid users and application developers. ASKALON is centered around a set of high level services for transparent and effective grid access, including a scheduler for optimized mapping of workflows onto the grid, an enactment engine for reliable application execution, a resource manager covering both computers and application components, and a performance prediction and analysis service based on a training phase, analytical models and dynamic measurements. A sophisticated XML-based programming interface that shields the user form the grid middleware details, allows the high level composition of workflow applications. ASKALON is used to develop and port scientific applications as workflows in the Austrian grid. Experimental results using several real world scientific applications to demonstrate the effectiveness of ASKALON is demonstrated |

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.
