| Abstract | Next Generation Networks (NGNs) are driven by the convergence of existing fixed, mobile, and cable networks towards interconnected all-IP networks. A key attribute of NGNs is the provision of seamless multimedia information and communication services across access networks of different technologies that are going to coexist and interoperate. This coexistence and interoperation creates a number of open research and standardization issues making the necessity of testing an important key enabler towards the transmission of existing wireless networks to the next generation ones. A de facto requirement for reliable testing is the formation of big infrastructures that provide advance testing facilities incorporating a number of hardware and software components, clusters, and testbeds. The paper attempts to address this challenge by discussing how events- based middleware distributed systems could be adopted for the formulation of large scale interconnected testbeds consisted in physical and virtual infrastructures. These interconnected testbeds could constitute testing environments for advanced networking approaches/algorithms/mechanisms concerning next generation networking platforms coexistence and optimization. The test case of a distributed testbed being under development in the context of the UNITE projects is also discussed to illustrate better how a distributed middleware logic serves the ultimate goal of new advanced experimental infrastructures. |

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.
