| Abstract | This paper presents the architecture of an operating system (called NanoOS) for applications distributed over mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Furthermore, a service distribution method inspired on the foraging behavior of ants is proposed. The NanoOS offers an uniform, environment of execution where the movement of nodes is transparent to the tasks. Moreover, the code of the OS is distributed among the nodes in order to support complex services while keeping the footprint small on each node. We propose a swarm optimization based heuristic to control the migration of the OS (and application) services in order to reduce the communication overhead. Each service request leaves pheromone in the nodes within its path to the service provider. An optimization step occurs when the service provider migrates to the neighbor node with the higher pheromone concentration. Realized simulations have shown that our heuristic performs well. The total communication cost in average is just 40% higher than the global optimum obtained using branch and bound, while a random, distribution of services result in a cost about 350% higher than the optimum. Moreover, our algorithm just uses local information and has a very low computational requirement |

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.
