| Abstract | The Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) mission is part of NASA's Solar Terrestrial Probes (STP) program. The mission calls for two identically instrumented observatories to be placed in heliocentric orbit, one leading the Earth, the other lagging. The APL is responsible for mission design, integration and providing the two spacecraft (without instruments). Due to cost constraints, both spacecraft are single-string with redundancy added where it would have the greatest benefit. Redundancy does not include a duplication of the spacecraft's avionics. In order to maximize heritage, the STEREO spacecraft avionics are based on the APL-designed Thermosphere, Ionosphere, Mesosphere, Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) spacecraft. TIMED is a fully redundant spacecraft. Due to the symmetry of the avionics architecture, the initial STEREO design was based on dividing the TIMED spacecraft avionics in half. This provided a functional, though not optimal design. As one might suspect, there were numerous potential single point failures and no redundancy. This paper discusses the STEREO architecture as it pertains to avionics and the functional allocation amongst its processors. After a series of trades, functions were reallocated, providing a level of hardware and software robustness that was not present in the initial STEREO design. This paper details these trades, as well as the architecture of the two spacecraft. An emphasis is placed on safing and autonomous control of the spacecraft in the face of contingencies. Spacecraft modes and mode transitions are also described. |

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.
