| Abstract | Ultra high energy cosmic rays are the most energetic of subatomic particles in the universe. They are measured to have energies of up to $10^{20}$ eV and occur at a rate of about once per square kilometer and century. To increase the probability of detecting one of these events, a huge detector covering a large area is needed. During the last decades, the Pierre Auger collaboration [1] build up an observatory covering 3000 square kilometers of the Pampa Amarilla close to Malargüe for this purpose. Until now, the Auger experiment was controlled exclusively via the local network for security and performance reasons. As local operation is associated with high travel costs, the Auger ACCESS project was started in 2005 to find a secure, operable and sustainable solution for remote control and monitoring. This paper descibes the implemented solution, including Grid technologies for secured access and infrastructure virtualization for building up a fully featured testing environment for the Pierre Auger Observatory. Finally, measurement results are presented together with a specification of a remote control room and associated benefits for the future of the Auger experiment. |

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.
