| Abstract | Over the last decade expert systems have been applied in many different domains with varying degrees of success. Much has been learned about techniques for knowledge representation, inference engines and user interfaces. Another important factor in the success of an expert system is to take into consideration at the design stage the person for whom the final system is intended: expert, informed user or beginner.Southampton University and Marchwood Laboratories of CEGB (Central Electricity Generating Board) have collaborated in recent years to produce an expert advisory system for selecting processes for welding. Apart from knowledge about the processes themselves, other factors have been taken into consideration such as equipment cost and availability, depreciation, running costs, the site, reject rate and quality level. This PC-based advisory system was designed for use by an informed but not necessarily expert welding engineer, for use in a laboratory, with an emphasis on the friendliness of the interface and flexibility of the system.Recent research work has concentrated on designing the software in an object-oriented way using an object-oriented language. This emphasis on encapsulation of data and relevant procedures has improved not only the efficiency of the system but also its overall design, meaning that future modifications or extensions can be incorporated with far greater ease. Current work includes the prototyping of tools, with the future aim of allowing a new user in a related area of engineering to use the tools to produce a similar expert system. |

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.
