| Abstract | With the increase in the number of mobile users, the need for new type of services and applications is also on the rise. Particularly, a growing area of interest is to provide location dependent services to the mobile users. In this paper, we introduce an efficient approach for processing the location dependent continuous queries using mobile agents and proactive caching. We investigate a common scenario in which both the querying unit and the object being queried are capable of movement. Since continuous queries are dealt with, we propose a heuristic approach from the moving behavior of the mobile unit such as location, direction and speed in a 2-dimensional space. Mobile agents are deployed in query processing to minimize the bandwidth utilization and to manage the frequent handoffs and disconnections. Moreover, it helps in concurrent evaluation of queries by a number of mobile units and reduces the latency of individual steps required to establish connection before data transfer can be performed and in continuing the database processes in the absence of network connection. This system also provides an efficient caching mechanism called Proactive caching that helps in minimizing the data traffic between the mobile unit and the base station and also the cached data is possible of being used for different types of location dependent queries unlike prior caching techniques where the cached data are semantically dependent on the query type. The cache replacement policy used in this work helps in purging the cache when the data available in the cache is no longer valid |

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.
