Abstract | To efficiently manage the sensor networks the topology of the entire network has to be discovered by the monitoring node. In this paper a topology discovery algorithm for sensor networks has been described. The algorithm finds a set of distinguished nodes, using whose neighborhood information the approximate topology of the network is constructed. Only these distinguished nodes reply back to the topology discovery probes. These nodes logically organize the network in the form of clusters comprising nodes in their neighborhood. Topology discovery algorithms form a tree of clusters rooted at the monitoring node, which initiates the topology discovery process. This organization is used for efficient data dissemination and aggregation, duty cycle assignment and fault tolerance of the network system. The unpredictable behaviors of sensor networks have made it a vital point that how the operational nodes will be managed when a node in the network fails. In this paper fault tolerance mechanisms for sensor networks have been described for clustered response approach on considering different scenarios that may come to consideration when a node fails; thus ensuring maximum connectivity among operational nodes after the failure of the node. The mechanism explains how the information packets transmitted to the faulty node can be cached by an operational node. After being repaired the faulty node is reinstalled to operational state and the mechanisms of getting the repaired node connected to the network have been described in this paper. Reverse traverse mechanism has been described in this paper as a part of fault tolerance mechanisms, which ensures that the number of clusters is not increased when a faulty node is repaired and re-connected to the network. The mechanisms described in this paper are distributed and highly scalable. |

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.
