| Abstract | Building intelligent machines has been a long dream of humanity. While the journey has been difficult and slow, the progress in Machine Learning, Optimization Techniques and advancement in Deep Belief Networks offers promising ways to engineer cognitive systems. The science behind cognitive computing seeks to develop systems that emulate human brain functions such as perception, knowledge accumulation, goal planning, and logical inference. Cognitive systems will operate at a speed and an informational capacity that far exceeds human capability. They will serve to act as an advisor, partner, helpmate, and co-creator to the humans, collaborating on human terms. Cognitive computing is a fundamentally new computing paradigm for tackling real world problems, exploiting enormous amounts of information using massively parallel machines that interact with humans and other cognitive systems. Cognitive systems will bring human-like reasoning to the problems of Big Data, and will also permit us to expand into the white space of domains that require human-like cognition but that either exceed human capacity or are impossible for a live human presence. In this talk, I will review the past progress and discuss the future challenges. I will address the architectural challenges of building a general purpose system of systems that can learn, can reason, and can interact in a human natural way. |

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.
