| Abstract | Service discovery is an integral part of constructing self-configuring Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). While several service discovery protocols have been developed, most of them are designed for infrastructure-based networks and thus not suitable to be used in MANETs. Due the volatile nature of MANET, service discovery protocols designed for MANETs often suffer from problems. Firstly, they have limited scalability due to the extensive use of broadcast communication. Secondly, they usually lack context-aware selection mechanisms and feature only reduced interaction standards. This paper proposes a network layer supported comprehensive service discovery solution that addresses the above issues and provides a solution in two parts. First it discusses a location-aware network layer routing protocol that groups mobile nodes into clusters while a gateway in each cluster is responsible for routing. Secondly, this paper proposes a service discovery protocol that utilizes directories for service discovery that interact with lower network layer gateway configurations. In this architecture, gateways are also used as directories for service discovery to improve performance. In doing so, we improve the system’s overall efficiency by eliminating the use of complex graph-based algorithms for maintaining clusters and establishing virtual backbones. Furthermore, this service discovery solution includes an agent-based context-aware service selection, and provides standard mechanisms for different types of service interaction. |

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.
