| Abstract | Current plans for the MUOS satellite communication system require military units and other users of MUOS communication resources to submit one or more satellite access requests (SARs) to a “chop-chain” approval process. The approval process can take considerable time, and the submitter cannot know whether the SAR will be successful until after the process completes. The problem compounded by the fact that reassignment of satellite beam carrier (SBC) frequencies to better suit new SARs is requires massive computation via the MUOS Performance Model (MPM) algorithms that can take over a day to run. To address these problems, this work demonstrates a dual-component software tool or planner. The first component is the SAR evaluator that evaluates a SAR's likelihood of success according to the same criteria that are considered when submitting a SAR over the SIPRNET for approval. It also shows a graphical assessment over time of the SAR's projected impact to the availability of various MUOS resources. The second component is the optimizer that rapidly determines SBC frequency assignments that minimize multi-access interference (MAI) on one or more MOUS satellites, given the newly specified SARs and currently committed traffic. The optimizer can aid the SAR submission process and can calculate “what-if scenarios” for SAR evaluators who must determine regional or global bandwidth allocations. The investigation includes benchmarks on proof-of-concept algorithms to demonstrate the capability of the optimizer to determine the carrier-frequency assignments in a few seconds when operating on portable devices such as an ordinary laptop as well as a PDA having limited computational bandwidth. |

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.
