| Abstract | With the rapid transformations of living environments, urban sustainable development has become an important global issue for urban growth and management. In order to effectively implement urban sustainable development, it is necessary to establish an operational action model based on its nature. This study first clarifies the core value of urban quality of life (QOL), and proposes the corresponding concept of Life−City. A variety of factors may affect the content of Life−City, and when assessing the objectives of sustainable development, there are uncertain properties and value judgments. Therefore, Life−City evaluation is a fuzzy multi-criteria decision analysis (FMCDA) problem. This study constructs the dimensions and the possible impact factors for urban QOL development. The fuzzy Delphi method (FDM) is employed to screen evaluation criteria and develop the overall evaluation framework. In order to effectively convert the subjective and perceptual issues in the framework into objective and quantitative processing, this study adopts the extent analysis method on fuzzy AHP (EAFAHP) to aggregate experts’ comments as empirical evaluation. The research results can convert the abstract concept of sustainability to the evaluation of Life−City specific operation, and serve as guidance for self-examination of current status and future policy development. |

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.
