| Abstract | Over the last few years, technologies for the formal description, construction, analysis, and validation of software - based mostly on logics and formal reasoning - have matured. We can expect them to complement and partly replace traditional software engineering methods in the future. Formal methods in software engineering are an increasingly important application area for intelligent systems. The field has outgrown the area of academic case studies, and industry is showing serious interest. We convincingly argue that we've reached the point where we can solve the problem of how to formally verify industrial-scale software. We propose program verification as a computer science Grand Challenge. Deductive software verification is a core technology of formal methods. We describe recent dramatic changes in the way it's perceived and used. Another important base technique of formal methods, besides software verification, is synthesizing software that's correct by construction because it's formally derived from its specification. We discuss recent developments and trends in this area. Surprisingly efficient decision procedures for the satisfiability modulo theories problem have recently emerged. We explain these techniques and why they're important for all formal-methods tools. We look at formal methods from an industry perspective. We explain the success of Microsoft Research's SLAM project, which has developed a verification tool for device drivers |

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.
