| Abstract | As applications become larger, building their UI is getting harder. While a lot of research focuses on new ways of building UIs, little work focuses on reusing existing UI components to automatically compose large-scale interfaces. This paper introduces Yeti, an automatic UI composer for desktop and android applications written in Java, that adopts a task-driven discipline where task hierarchy denotes component containment and control. We propose the notion of globally unique task identifiers to avoid task naming confusions across components and repositories. To enable applications set mandatory control aspects for the retrieved UI components, we introduce required APIs as part of task definitions. Yeti emphasizes the composition of reusable coarse-grained UI components rather than automatic UI creation from scratch, so no lower-level specifications are deployed. Retrieved and composed components can be directly handled inside application logic via the application-defined APIs and the generic component interface required for all components. This programming-oriented approach allows UI programmers to deploy Yeti as a software library, while it enables the mix of composed UI parts with manually coded ones. To validate our system and demonstrate its deployment, we present an example application created from existing components. |

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.
