| Abstract | Recent advances in the availability of 3G-cellular phones with imaging and multimedia capability and in the development of the new mobile telephone networks opens completely new horizons for the development of innovative IT tools in the domain of cultural heritage, with particular emphasis to archaeological sites and museums. AGAMEMNON is a project, co-funded under the 1ST 6th Framework Program of the European Commission, which exploits mobile phones equipped with embedded cameras as the main input/output device to provide a visitor of an archeological site with a personalized, information enriched experience. In this paper we describe the image-based "attention awareness engine" which represents the main concept entrusted into AGAMEMNON's user interface a mechanism for querying multimedia cultural heritage contents based on the user's context. We shall also discuss the main issues underlying the addressed problem, and review the preliminary results obtained so far in the project 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.
