| Abstract | The Software Engineering Process Group (SEPG) at the Data Systems Division of Litton Systems, Inc., was given the task of documenting the software development process used within the division. This paper describes how the SEPG at Litton accomplished this task. It discusses the sources we used for guidance and describes the resulting documentation for defining the software development process and the methods and tools that support the process.After reviewing the existing software process documentation at Litton, the SEPG concluded that three separate documents were required: a revised set of Software Policies and Procedures (PPGs), a Software Engineering Handbook, and a Software Management Handbook. The SEPG established working groups to develop these documents. The working group responsible for the Software Engineering Handbook decided to develop it as a user manual for the software development process. Following Weiss' guidelines for developing a usable user manual, the working group developed storyboards for sections of the manual. A model initially developed at IBM and refined by SEI and others was used to describe the software development process as a series of work tasks, each of which has entry criteria, exit criteria, objectives, and steps to perform.Several authors developed the storyboards and the corresponding modules of the handbook. The handbook was partitioned into short modules, each of which has a topic sentence and a figure (where applicable). The result is a modular Software Engineering Handbook that is easy to read and maintain.The use of working groups and the development of the Software Engineering Handbook as a user manual proved to be efficient and effective methods for generating high quality software process documentation. |

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.
