| Abstract | Summary form only given. The Army Research Laboratory's (ARL) past battery R&D programs were guided by the need for higher power and energy from smaller, lighter-weight batteries. The safe storage, transportation, use and disposal of these batteries represented a much higher priority than the issue of battery cost. This earlier priority ranking was satisfied initially with the successful development and full-scale fielding of the family of military-unique, nonrechargeable lithium sulfur dioxide batteries in the late 1970s. The continued use of these batteries for peacetime training missions in today's economic environment imposes a major cost burden on Army users. To meet the need for more cost effective batteries for portable military C41 equipment, ARL's advanced battery development efforts are aimed at applying several dual use (military and commercial) battery technologies that are available in commercial products today. The first is the lithium manganese dioxide nonrechargeable system which promises twice the energy of the corresponding lithium sulfur dioxide battery at lower cost on an equal energy basis. The other two are rechargeable battery technologies. The nickel metal hydride system can provide an immediate near term upgrade/replacement for present nickel cadmium batteries. The lithium ion system offers an order of magnitude cost savings when used instead of nonrechargeable lithium batteries in peacetime training exercises. The status of these cost avoidance product developments and quantification of the associated performance-cost trade-offs inherent in each are discussed. |

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.
