| Abstract | Centralized systems have disadvantages that make them unsuitable for large-scale integration, including reliance on centralized communication, high complexity, lack of scalability and robustness, and high cost of integration. The use of distributed intelligence system technologies avoids these weaknesses. Distributed intelligence systems are based on the use of cooperative agents, organized in hardware or software components, that independently handle specialized tasks and cooperate to achieve system-level goals and achieve a high degree of flexibility. By distributing the logistic and strategic requirements of a system, it is possible to achieve greatly improved robustness, reliability, scalability, and security. Key to achieving these benefits is the use of holonic system technologies that establish a peer-to-peer environment to enable coordination, collaboration, and cooperation within the network. Such systems require both hardware and software components. This lecture provides an overview of the technologies of distributed intelligence systems that have been developed by the presenter and his company, students, and colleagues, in cooperation with the Holonic Manufacturing Systems Consortium, and members of the Technical Committee on Distributed Intelligent Systems of the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society. Hardware and software architectures will be described for a wireless distributed intelligence system infrastructure being developed at Intelligent Robotics Corporation and the Intelligent/Distributed Enterprise Automation Laboratory of Simon Fraser University. Applications of distributed intelligence systems will be described, including distributed trading of digital services, RFID-based personnel and goods tracking, wireless automated meter reading, and resource management of distributed energy systems. |

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.
