| Abstract | With the increasing environmental sophistication of consumers, there is a need to consider environmental factors and sustainability in the design process. This paper proposes a design methodology intended for software implementation called eAD+ to address the following four issues: 1) there are inherent couplings between eco-factors and product design parameters, 2) eco-factors are seldom structured for ready use within all phases of the design process, 3) there is a need for a formal feedback mechanism from the results of eco-analysis to the design process, and 4) it can be difficult to identify which design choice causes the most egregious environmental issue or functional coupling. eAD+ is based primarily on the Axiomatic Design (AD) methodology and addresses these issues as follows. First, AD directly identifies couplings between the functional requirements (FRs) in a design so that efforts, such as TRIZ, can be applied to address them. Second, as common eco-factors do not provide sufficient structure for inclusion in the AD framework, we develop structured eco-FRs and constraints. These are included alongside the product FRs throughout the design process. Third, the subset of the design matrix (DM) relating the eco-FRs to the design parameters explicitly incorporates feedback from eco-analysis into the design process. Here a database containing environmental (or sustainability) information is employed to evaluate the design. Fourth, we employ an augmented DM (drawing inspiration from the House of Quality of QFD) that provides weights highlighting which design parameter has the greatest influence on eco-factors and functional couplings. |

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.
