| Abstract | Asynchronous group communication systems propagate updates from each group member to every other member. Contemporary users are wireless and operate from a variety of locations. Hence, we investigate the propagation performance for these users. An analysis of wireless users in academia, corporation and in a city-wide hotspot federation shows that the availability durations and the duration between sessions depends on the locale. A longer term analysis shows that the user session lengths are becoming smaller while the duration between sessions are becoming larger with significant user churn. We show that the propagation performance depends on the locale. New users incur a heavy cost in receiving updates from prior users; applications need to develop expiration mechanisms to reduce this overhead. Also, since users regularly leave the system, practical communication mechanisms need to choose their propagation periodicity in order to respond to scenarios when the user abruptly leaves the system without propagating their updates to other users. |

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.
