| Abstract | A new prototype of a tile hadron calorimeter (HCAL) for the International Linear Collider (ILC) detector is currently developed within the CALICE collaboration. The aim is to improve the energy resolution by measuring details of the shower development (particle flow). The prototype is based on scintillating tiles that are read out by novel silicon photo-multipliers (SiPMs). The full prototype will contain about 2500 detector channels (one layer) and takes into account all engineering design aspects that are demanded by the intended operation at the ILC. For technical manageability reasons, the detector is subdivided into basic units (HCAL Base Unit: HBU) with typically 144 detector channels. In order to reduce the amount of non-absorbing material in the calorimeter, the thickness of the inner detector modules is optimized to only 5.4mm. The presentation will focus on the first electrical and mechanical integration experiences of the first two realized HBUs. The operation with a newly developed data acquisition, based on a commercial FPGA board and two newly developed mezzanine modules, is described. Additionally, first results for an integrated light-calibration system (LCS) are shown, addressing the critical distribution of the fast trigger signals (pulse width of about 40ns) to all channels. The LCS is used for calibration and gain monitoring, addressing the temperature and bias dependencies of the SiPMs gains. |

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.
