| Abstract | Our laboratory has developed a data acquisition system (eMiCES) for small animal positron emission tomography scanners (PET) and other special purpose detector systems for radiotracer imaging applications. For our applications, the electronics had to be able to be mountable inside a rotating gantry. The resulting design consists of a series of modules that can be tailored for individual applications. The modules include a signal conditioning board (that can include analog signal summing), an analog processing board (digitization, integration, time stamping, and other pulse processing functions), and a communications board to the host computer via the 1394a bus (Firewire). The design takes advantage of the considerable commercial development of Firewire tools in the kernels of Microsoft and Apple computer operating systems. The various electronics modules also make extensive use of field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) for time stamping, pulse integration, and coincidence processing. Our current application of the system is for our small animal PET scanner (MiCES) with 72 detector modules organized as 36 Firewire nodes |

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.
