| Abstract | The Ada programming language has gone public. The Department of Defense originally sponsored the effort in order to develop a high level language which could be used in real time computer systems. Such systems are written in assembly language or in obscure languages such as CMS (Navy), JOVIAL (Air Force), and TACPOL (Army). Each of the high level languages in current use by the services has deficiencies which require the use of assembly language in almost all applications. In fact, most of the real time applications which are written supposedly in a high level language are written actually in assembly language because the compilers accept assembly language statements. This sad state of affairs has resulted because none of the current language can handle all of the requirements of real time applications. For example, there exist at least four dialects of JOVIAL (J2, J3, J3B, and J73) none of which have a basic input or output capability. Some of the problems which result from the use of assembly language and obscure languages are logistical rather than technical: a small number of people know these languages; there is a dearth of training material and courses; there is no portability of programs or people between systems which use these languages; the programming environments for each of the languages is poor; the languages are not available on many computer systems. |

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.
