Abstract | Opportunistic networking is one of the most interesting evolutions of mobile ad hoc networks. In this kind of wireless network, mobile nodes such as mobile phones and PDAs, use the mobility of devices as well as wireless forwarding between intermediate nodes to communicate with each other, hence a complete route between source and destination is not required at any point in time. The design of efficient forwarding protocols for opportunistic networks is a research challenge due to the absence of a priori information about the topological development of the network over time. Forwarding protocols in opportunistic networks usually employ only mobile devices to facilitate data forwarding. In this paper we examine the use of fixed infrastructure (or repositories) together with user mobility information to facilitate data forwarding in opportunistic networks. We propose a repository based forwarding protocol (RFP), and compare it with the epidemic routing protocol. The results show a quantifiable and significant benefit in performance when evaluated on practical scenarios. |

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.
