| Abstract | The push for improved access to health information using digital health and electronic technologies has seen Australia at the forefront of developing foundational services such as medication management. The current national solution for the electronic transfer of prescriptions is based on a centralised exchange model which is an expensive solution over the long term. Further, it does not include access by the patient to their electronic prescription information. In an environment where it is increasingly beneficial for patient engagement in their own information and subsequent care, alternative and cheaper solutions should be considered. One such solution has been the focus of doctoral research into the transfer of electronic prescriptions using mobile phone technology. A constituent part of any such solution in the security of the data at rest and in transit. The potential candidate transfer mechanisms for the security of data in transit were investigated, including near field communication (NFC) and Bluetooth for Health. The issues in using NFC as a potential solution lie with platform related software development and its impact on seamless interoperability, making this a less reliable and less viable solution for electronic prescription transfer on mobile devices. The investigation of Bluetooth revealed that it is more amenable to multiple platforms and interoperability with significant support from both vendors and the software development community. The impact of these research findings lie in the proof of concept using mobile devices to improve the ability of the patient to be an active participant in their own healthcare and the important aspect of medication management. |

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.
