| Abstract | Summary form only given. As biologists model complex systems whose properties are not fully explained by the properties of their component parts, they have long understood that it is important to investigate the interactions of those component parts, interactions such as those in which different cells work together in such tasks as determining when a cell divides and how gene expression is regulated. Bioinformatics, with an expansion to a systems-based perspective, taking advantage of the expertise of mathematicians, computer scientists, engineers, and physicists, is well positioned to play a major role in achieving this. Bioinformatics has evolved to focus on the molecular basis of genomic data, attempting to identify, qualify and quantify genes and gene products. The ultimate goal for the application of bioinformatics in practice, for example in the pharmaceutical and medical areas, is in the development of knowledge to impact the practice of medicine (i.e., diagnosis and treatment of predisposition and disease). Biomedical Informatics is relatively early in its evolution in that it examines the bioinformatic data from this systems-based perspective and attempts to integrate observations and knowledge about clinical disease to analyze the underlying biological processes. Success in these separate developments will come from their convergent evolution. To enable the interface between computation and experiment, stochastic and deterministic modeling including graph theoretical methods are being applied to the representation and evaluation of biological pathways and processes in normal and diseased states. These computational approaches attempt to deal with incomplete information, unresolved molecular interactions and multiple modeling hierarchies. We hope that progress on them will result in their application in the analysis and interpretation of clinical disease, e.g., cancer, coagulation disorders, diabetes, in terms of gene identification for use in diagnostic and therapeutic target design. This workshop will investigate these computational approaches and explore the systems-based approach to bioinformatics as it evolve's towards biomedical informatics. |

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.
