| Abstract | A national statistical agency such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics usually produces the results of its surveys in tabular form at the cost of a substantial portion of its data processing resources. The tables are often quite complex with common requirements for cross tabulation of irregular patterns of hierarchical data files with many intermediate levels of summarization, percentage distributions, measures of statistical precision, and intricate publication formats. The Table Producing Language (TPL) has been designed and implemented as a general tool for producing statistical tables. The syntax of the language allows the user to construct expressions representing the desired tables and auxiliary operations. The expressions are problem oriented, nonprocedural, compact, and written with English-like nomenclature. Together with a Codebook, they allow the specification of complex data reduction, cross tabulation, and table generation operations. Users may be research economists, statisticians and other social scientists who need not have experience with conventional computer programming languages, as well as computer oriented staff concerned with production tasks. |

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.
