| Abstract | While the notion of components has had a major positive impact on the way software architectures are conceptualized and represented, they have had relatively little impact on the processes and procedures used to develop software systems. In terms of software development processes, use case-driven iterative and incremental development has become the predominant paradigm, which at best ignores components and at worse is even antagonistic to them. However, use-case driven, I&I development (as popularized by agile methods) and component-based development have opposite strengths and weaknesses. The former's techniques for risk mitigation and prioritization greatly reduce the risks associated with software engineering, but often give rise to suboptimal architectures that emerge in a semi-ad hoc fashion over time. In contrast, the latter gives rise to robust, optimized architectures, but to date has poor process support. In principle, therefore, there is a lot to be gained by fundamentally aligning the core principles of component-based and I&I development into a single, unified development approach. In this position paper we discuss the key issues involved in attaining such a synergy and suggest some core ideas for merging the principles of component-based and I&I development. |

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.
