0220523Rahman Description: This award supports US-India cooperative research on the Digital Library Network. US PI Saifur Rahman of Virginia Polytechnic Institution (VPI) & State University will collaborate with Sivaji Chakravorti and other faculty at Jadavpur University, Kolkata on developing lifelong learning materials for the Digital Library Network for Engineering and Technology (DLNET). The investigators will create protocols and content materials for a new portal through which contents can be both posted and accessed. The portal will provide a gateway for educational and research materials that are newly created by universities and professional associations in various engineering disciplines. It will also enhance the dissemination of new knowledge across disciplinary boundaries. Scope: This activity adds an international component to NSF supported research on the National Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology Education Digital Library. It will facilitate lifelong learning among engineering faculty, practicing engineers and technical professionals, a practice that is gradually becoming a major thrust in developed and developing countries alike. Digital libraries and their content development is a major area of investigation, in which experts from all over the world and in various fields can contribute to its successful culmination. The faculty at Jadavpur University is experienced in the design of web-based materials; the students are well-versed in modern software techniques. The award will support an exchange of visits between Rahman and Chakravorti. Jadavpur University will host the US PI's visit to Kolkata.

描述：该奖项支持美印在数字图书馆网络上的合作研究。美国弗吉尼亚理工学院（VPI）和州立大学PI Saifur Rahman将与加尔各答Jadavpur大学的Sivaji Chakravorti和其他教师合作，为工程与技术数字图书馆网络（DLNET）开发终身学习材料。调查人员将为一个新的门户创建协议和内容材料，通过该门户可以发布和访问内容。该门户网站将为各工程学科的大学和专业协会新创建的教育和研究资料提供门户。它还将加强跨学科界限的新知识传播。范围：这项活动为国家科学基金会支持的国家科学、数学、工程和技术教育数字图书馆的研究增加了一个国际组成部分。它将促进工程教员、执业工程师和技术专业人员的终身学习，这种做法正逐渐成为发达国家和发展中国家的主要推动力。数字图书馆及其内容开发是一个主要的研究领域，来自世界各地和各个领域的专家可以为其成功的高潮做出贡献。Jadavpur大学的教师在网络材料的设计方面经验丰富；学生们精通现代软件技术。该奖项将支持拉赫曼和Chakravorti之间的互访。Jadavpur大学将主办美国PI访问加尔各答。
