| Abstract | A challenge facing many educators is providing assignments in a realistic context that achieve the specified learning objectives. Integrating real-world scenarios in one's curriculum can be challenging. We present a new integrated exercise sequence using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) involving both assembly language and high-level language software development. During this sequence, our sophomore students at the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA) implement a communications packet-based protocol for a simulated UAV system. The first exercise is an introduction to assembly language programming, involving user input/output and integer-based instructions. The second exercise adds the use of assembly language floating point instructions. To simulate radio transmission of data from the UAV to a ground control station (GCS), the third exercise introduces command-line pipes. The GCS is implemented in a high-level-language and consists primarily of an IEEE 754 software multiplier. Memory traces from these three exercises are used during their final team project, implementing a visual cache simulator. This new UAV-based computer architecture assignment meets an institutional goal of having career-related assignments in each course. Our institution has a strong inter-disciplinary UAV research group, which a member of our department directs and from which this sequence is derived. This sequence prepares students for the senior-year UAV-based software engineering capstone |

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.
