| Abstract | The simulation of physical systems, once exclusively the domain of analog computers, is also being performed today by a variety of large-scale digital systems. Many specialized programs have been developed to permit the study of electronic circuits, biological organisms, and chemical processes, etc., by mathematical and empirical modeling techniques. So often these programs are written in procedural computer languages and may require months of developmental investment (and debugging) to yield a handful of computer-produced results. In addition, if simulation parameters are not well known, it may take hundreds of test runs to produce a simulation model that realistically portrays the actual processes involved. When the digital computer utilized to perform the simulation is operated in a batch-processing environment, such determination of model fidelity may take weeks because of the time lag from submission of test data to receipt of program results. Smaller computer systems may permit almost instantaneous turnaround and even on-line interaction, but too often do not have sufficient memory size, precision, or speed to be of much use in complicated digital simulations. The SIMCON simulation system is an integrated hardware/software system developed for the purpose of overcoming the difficulties of applying large-scale digital computers to the simulation of physical systems. The SIMCON system, which is used in conjunction with the IBM 360/91 computer, consists of the DSL/91 programming language, the SIMCON control console, a hybrid data interface, and a number of analog graphical peripherals. The SIMCON simulation system shown in Figure 1 includes the SIMCON console, incremental recorder and duel-channel X-Y plotter. The discussion of the SIMCON system presented herein includes the results from several hybrid satellite study programs, as examples of its application. |

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.
