| Abstract | Efficient supply chains should be responsive to demand surges and supply disruptions resulting from internal and external vulnerabilities. Firms can respond to vulnerabilities by either, reallocating and redirecting existing capacity, or, maintaining redundant capacity. Responding to these disruptions depends on efficient real-time decision-making through information sharing and collaboration. The concept of Information Supply Chains captures this focus on information flows between the various entities in the supply chain. In this paper, we use autonomic principles of self-optimization and self-configuration to address demand surges in the context of healthcare information supply chains that have been disrupted by epidemics. We build a prototype system using a multi-agent systems platform and the Autonomic Computing Toolkit, to illustrate how autonomic computing approaches can facilitate resource allocation decisions in responding to public health emergencies. |

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.
