| Abstract | Portable devices are ubiquitous and users are expecting more sophisticated and natural interactions, where the interface mimics and extends real world objects, such as paper. Visual communication languages are used on these media to convey a wealth of information, which can be analysed and automatically extracted. This research investigates how a digital alternative to a static medium can seamlessly and easily provide electronic support. The case study of the research, the pre-production phase of computer generated film making, was chosen as it has a comprehensive visual language on which to draw. A framework for sketch-based interaction is proposed, and a prototype system is evaluated on a number of different criteria. The main findings of the evaluation were that users found the sketch-based interaction intuitive, easy to learn and preferred it to standard interaction techniques. The main limiting factors of a sketch-based interaction technique were identified as adequately dealing with recognition errors and managing algorithm execution time so that the system remained interactive. A set of guidelines is provided to help researchers and developers in creating tools using similar techniques. |

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.
