| Abstract | Scale-based product platform design consists of platform configuration to decide which variables are shared among which product variants, and selection of the optimal values for platform (shared) and non-platform variables for all product variants. The configuration step plays a vital role in determining two important aspects of a product family: efficiency (cost savings due to commonality) and effectiveness (capability to satisfy performance requirements). Many existing product platform design methods ignore it, assuming a given platform configuration. Most approaches, whether or not they consider the configuration step, are single-platform methods, in which design variables are either shared across all product variants or not shared at all. In multiple-platform design, design variables may be shared among variants in any possible combination of subsets, offering opportunities for superior overall design but presenting a more difficult computational problem. In this work, sensitivity analysis and cluster analysis are used to improve both efficiency and effectiveness of a scale-based product family through multiple-platform product family design.Sensitivity analysis is performed on each design variable to help select candidate platform design variables and to provide guidance for cluster analysis. Cluster analysis, using performance loss due to commonization as the clustering criterion, is employed to determine platform configuration. An illustrative example is used to demonstrate the merits of the proposed method, and the results are compared with existing results from the literature. |

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.
