| Abstract | A major design issue in ad hoc networks is the problem of location management. In a "flat" network architecture, location management is handled by routing protocols; however, in large ad-hoc networks, the "flat" architecture is not efficient, so a roaming cluster (RC) scheme has been proposed to support location management in hierarchical ad-hoc networks. With the aim of reducing the cost of location updating, location registration is only updated when the mobile user exits the current roaming cluster. The cost and delay of paging a mobile user in such a hierarchical ad-hoc network architecture increases with the size of the roaming cluster. Based on the group character of the movement of mobile users in ad-hoc networks, we propose a forwarding pointers scheme to reduce the cost of paging mobile users. Unlike the RC scheme, we use a pointer to track the exact location of a mobile user during its movement in the roaming cluster. The design objective of using pointers is to reduce the paging cost and delay significantly with a moderate increase in the cost of location updating. We develop an analytical model that is applied to formulate the cost of location updating and of forwarding pointers maintenance. The performance of the forwarding scheme is evaluated through simulation to demonstrate its cost-effectiveness for large ad-hoc networks. |

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.
