| Abstract | The ubiquitous wireless networks make it become possible for people to access a variety of services anytime and anywhere through mobile devices such as smartphone and tablet. However, due to the diversity and complexity of services, the requirement for storage and computing capacity for mobile devices is becoming higher and higher. Mobile transparent computing is a fit for this scenario. In mobile transparent computing, the client terminal is rather simple and light-weighted, and the operating systems, applications and user data are all regarded as software resources and stored in the server. The resources required in the user services are dynamically scheduled from the server to run on the client terminal in a streaming-block way via wireless network. In mobile transparent computing, we use the NFS (Network File System) protocol to realize the dynamic scheduling of resources. However, the wireless network environment is complex and unstable, and the wireless packet loss rate is high and the retransmission interval of lost packet is long in mobile transparent computing. In order to improve the scheduling efficiency of users' resources and the NFS performance, we analyze the factors that affect the NFS performance, including NFS read/write block size, wireless bandwidth and so on. We study the effect of bandwidth for the NFS performance when several mobile terminals schedule their resources at the same time. Finally, we improve the NFS performance by setting the optimal block size for read/write, and use TCP as our NFS transmission protocol in mobile transparent computing. |

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.
