    Access to E-Resources for Indian Higher Education System and the Role of INFED (INFLIBNET Access Management Federation)
    (INFLIBNET Centre, Gandhinagar, 2017-07-01) Patel, Yatrik; V Raja
    Indian Universities and institutions of higher education have witnessed a boost in e-resources accessible to their users through various consortium initiatives. However, at present, mostly the access is restricted to only university/institute campuses within specific IP ranges. There is a need to widen the access of e-resources. Ideally the access to e-resources should be available to users from anywhere i.e. on-campus, off-campus, from home, while travelling and at any given point of time. The purpose of this article to give an overview of the role of INFED (INFIBNET Access Management Federation) to expand the reach of e-resources and make some suggestions about how effective it is from perspective of practice with a view to justifying its role. This paper attempts to describe the scope of INFED and benefits of inter federation services, beyond the features off-campus access.

    Efficient Dynamic Index Structure for Natural Number Intensive Application
    (International Journal of Computer Applications, New York, 2015-01) Patel, Mayank; Parmar, Bhavesh; Patel, Yatrik; Joshi, Hiren
    Wide range of indexing techniques exists in the world of relational database. Speed of data insertion & retrieval depends on the type of query and available Indexing mechanism. Prevalent mechanisms lack in terms of space-time efficiency and simple structure, for real time applications where the database system needs to handle queries like equality search & range search. Even for simple tasks like getting data by ID, a system imposes heavy resource utilization. For example, Applications such as, telephone directory, transaction information details in banking, status about railway reservation etc. , backed with relational database system that employs complex structure like B-Tree or B+-Tree. Hence in such cases, instead of those complex structures, if some lighter technique can be used, which can greatly enhance the overall performance in terms of memory usage and simpler in terms of working & implementation. The paper presents how the Proposed Technique can significantly impact the overall performance, if applied as Primary Indexing method for range search & equality search queries.

    Ensuring High-Level System Availability of Computing Services
    (INFLIBNET Centre, Gandhinagar, 2016-10-01) Patel, Yatrik; V, Raja
    Today number of institutes and their day-to-day activities are solely depended on IT. Almost every aspect of the institutional activity and services needs Internet connectivity and computing infrastructure to function. IT made the things faster, easier. At the same time, the responsibilities of implementer has increased multi-fold to ensure less downtime of applications and services. The cost of downtime is very high and may spoil the reputation of institution and its services. The best way to overcome the failure of the system or applications is setting up the high-level system availability. High-level system availability refers to a server or an application that ensures uninterrupted operational for a maximum possible time. In fact, a fault-free system or application that is expected to run without fail has to be well-designed and thoroughly tested before its deployment. Nowadays servers and underlying network have to manage a large volume of traffic to serve millions of clients. Perhaps, a single server may not sustain such a heavy load. In this computer era, it is very challenging task to achieve “100% Operational” or “never failing” of any computing environment. This can be achieved by implementing various redundancy mechanisms for hardware as well as software. Most of the organization prefers to deploy their applications on cloud so that the disaster recovery can be achieved with immediate effect without much complexity and safeguarding investments. High-level system availability can avoid having single point-of-failure. If failure occurs restoration can be performed in microseconds. This article attempts to give glimpses and technical highlights on achieving maximum uptime with minimal chances to failure of computing environment using presently available technologies.

    Knowledge Discovery of MARCXML based Library Databases using FOSS Full Text Indexing Tools
    (Inflibnet Centre, 2011-03-02) Patel, Yatrik; Rayka, Dinesh; Vaghela, Divyakant
    This paper discusses introduction to full text search, its comparison with traditional approach, which gives insight on popular open source indexing and searching tools viz a viz. Lucene and Solr by Apache Foundation. In internet era libraries are known as knowledge warehouses. Library databases are prominently available in MARCXML format and there are very few free and open source (FOSS) implementations are available in public domain. Many efforts are made in integrating the popular searching and indexing techniques which powers even some of the world’s largest search engines, In library domain this has not been attempted pr operly.This paper is an attempt to showcase technique for implementation of Lucene/Solr based full text indexing over MARCXML based catalogue records to provide reliable, fast and dynamic search interface with provision of facets.

    Subject Gateway: Knowledge Discovery Tool by INFLIBNET
    (Inflibnet Centre, 2011-03-02) Patel, Yatrik; Patel, Swapnil
    Internet is one of the valuable and probably most used information resources in the libraries present days. Information Technology have made data retrieval easier and faster, giving rise to a substantial industry providing access to professional, business and scientific information. In Indian context a little progress has been made towards increasing the relevancy of the data with the initiation of various search engines and subject directories. In absence of these activities, information sources remain unreachable, unsearchable, hard to find and difficult to access. INFLIBNET Centre’s” Subject Gateway” is an attempt to make the things somewhat simple. “Subject Gateway” allows user to browse subject lists of good quality and evaluated subject resources. A subject gateway allows libraries and related organizations to explore the usefulness of their subject expertise in the organisation of knowledge in the word of network -based, digital information. In this paper we have discussed development and implementation of “Subject Gateway” at INFLIBNET Centre
