| Abstract | Laboratory tests can appear similar from the test names but may be vastly different in the way a result is achieved. Currently, for example, cervical cancer evaluation is moving from the traditional Papanicolaou smear to new smear preparation technologies and testing for human papillomavirus. Monitoring the quality of these three tests, and of all tests, requires that computers "understand" how these tests are similar and different. The National Inventory of Clinical Laboratory Testing Services (NICLTS) found that the approximately 20,000 most commonly performed tests used combinations of 635 analytes and 1,699 methods. These analytes and methods provide the base data for a semantic model that makes the requisite similarities and differences explicit. The semantic relationships, e.g. the method principle enabling a test and the nature of the substance tested, were evaluated against empirically derived, uni-dimensional relations. The resulting multi-dimensional semantic model expands our ability to monitor the quality of laboratory testing in the face of rapid change. Use of common terminology tools and representations enable the creation, expansion and reuse of this model beyond the needs of NICLTS. |

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.
