| Abstract | The most remarkable feature of the modern world is constant and rapid change. Our software systems must be able to reflect and facilitate this change and not just tolerate it, as has been the case up to now. Increasingly software is the key enabler of innovation, service improvement and constant evolution but in many domains the level of quality that is needed can only be reached by freezing the software after exhaustive and exhausting testing. Society and industry demand better. Software development processes have reflected the same shortcomings, and ICSSP 2014 is a significant step towards recognizing and solving them. Lero, the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre, focuses its research around ‘Evolving Critical Systems’. Working with leading software companies Lero is developing methods and processes that support software evolution both at the design stage and during runtime. The challenge is to meet the stringent requirements of some domains while facilitating this evolution. Despite the skepticism of some developers, agile methods have been successfully adapted by Lero to meet the needs of highly regulated industries. Two examples illustrate how methods and processes themselves must evolve to meet the changing needs of process users . |

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.
