| Abstract | This study considers deployment paths for automated vehicles, evaluating the new approach of an evolutionary process of isolated deployment. Here, isolated, fully automated systems are developed from the ground-up in areas with the greatest need/opportunity; over time, such systems can expand and become interconnected. This is an alternative to the integrated deployment strategies developed by the automated highway systems (AHS) program. Tellingly, AHS never settled on a specific deployment strategy because of disagreements among many of its members, but much of the research did include an integrated approach, whereby the technology progresses over time from manual driving to full automation. This study compares the two approaches, arguing that integrated deployment is fundamentally hampered by institutional hurdles and the difficulty of encouraging the large-scale adoption necessary to achieve the most significant benefits of automation, including increased lane capacity and vehicle speed. It proposes that a predominantly isolated approach, accomplished with protocols and standards to allow for eventual interoperability of systems, can offer a superior path forward. This is especially attractive for bus rapid transit applications and electrification via in-motion power, as proposed by the Automated Electric Transportation program. |

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.
