ECOSYSTEM

ACCEPTANCE

PRESENTED BY:

INTRODUCTION
Ecological system or ecosystem is an open space built by

physical and biological components of an environment.

Ecosystem is result of an active interaction between living

and non-living components.

Ecosystem is where community of plants, animals and their

environment function as a whole, and relationship between organism and environment thrives blissfully.

Ecosystem and its types

Ecosystems differ in their size and types.

Earth itself is an immense ecosystem.

Aquatic Ecosystem Arctic Tundra Boreal Forest Urban ecosystem

Ecological imbalance: imperiling the whole Ecosystem

With the increased industrialization and scientific

approach to our life, the natural resources and rich natural heritage which were being preserved for centuries have begun dwindling greatly.

 Its treatment with nature has posed today many serious

challenges and problems like climate change, vector-borne disease, decay in wildlife and its resources and food and water shortage.
Exploitation of natural resources prevalent all over the world

has erupted into severe ecological degradation, which is definitely the biggest threat to proper functioning of our ecosystem.

RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
To study the ecological system and its types. To study the growth of eco-enterprise

system.

To study the factors that contribute to the

problem of ecosystem. study the ecosystem.

To

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The study/research of recent Economic recession in

America.

PURPOSE AND RELEVANCE OF THE STUDY

The purpose of study is to measure or to identify the causes

of economic recession in US and its relevance to India.

RESEARCH APPROACH
Research is best suited for Descriptive Research. Research

undertaken to learn about financial crisis and to measure these magnitudes in the countries like US and India.

GROWTH OF THE ECO-ENTERPRISE ECOSYSTEM

The Financial Express places a spotlight on eco-

enterprises in India, bringing attention to the growth of organizations that address environmental issues and crediting their success to supportive government policies, maturing clean technologies and growing investor appetite.

DIGITAL GREEN
DIGITAL GREEN is using information and communication technology

to share agricultural best practices.

Digital Green builds and deploys information and communication

technology to amplify the effectiveness of development efforts around the world to affect sustained, social change.
The unique components of the Digital Green system include

a participatory process for local video production, a human-mediated instruction model for video dissemination and training, a hardware and software technology platform for exchanging data in areas with limited Internet and electrical grid connectivity, and an iterative model to progressively better address the needs and interests of the community with analytical tools and interactive phone-based feedback channels.

manufactured by Ossian Agro Automation, a company working in the field of rural automation, since last 15 years.
Ossian's specialty is to manufacture irrigation automation

systems with focus on appropriate technology for the rural zones.

SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES & ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECTS

It

develops environment-friendly technologies to convert waste into value-added products.

The Sustainable Technology Education Project (STEP)

aims to increase young people's awareness of sustainable technology, enabling them to recognize the economic and environmental impacts of the technology they choose.

DHAMA APPAREL
It aims to make technology wearable, using climate control

technology for functional apparel.

Dhama Innovations was founded by Kranthi Kiran Vistakula, while he

was pursuing his Masters at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston.

Kranthi was plagued by the most common problem faced by people

the world over, that of coping with fluctuating weather & temperature extremes in different seasons.

ECOSYSTEM FOR DIGITAL PRESERVATION IN INDIAN CONTEXT: A PROPOSAL FOR SUSTAINABLE AND ITERATIVE LIFECYCLE MODEL
The ecosystem and iterative loop shaped lifecycle model

are the imperatives for long term sustainability of digital preservation in India.
Digital preservation initiative can be launched with

minimum upfront investments and basic infrastructure combined with long term and user centre vision.

 Training and certification, process design, stakeholder

ownership, tools and technologies relevant in Indian context can immensely help in building the digital collections.
Continuous enhancements, technical support, collective

learning, auditing and validation of quality can truly empower the archiving organizations and gear up for sustenance.
Content enrichment and value added applications for

users can make sustainable.

The Indian Context

Digital archiving projects in India so far have focused on

using computers for cataloging the materials.

Computerization of libraries and archives is primarily

used for managing local and physical transactions of books or antiquities or films or any other materials.

 Long

term digital preservation and providing accessibility to the outside world has rarely been explored.

The socioeconomic conditions, implication of legacy of

laws, work culture in archiving organizations, speed and level of acceptance to new technologies and age-old procedures need serious consideration.

Ecosystem for digital preservation

Analogically, if digital preservation is considered as an

organism then it becomes inevitable to treat it with the knowledge that life is a manifestation of ecosystem
Therefore, we have tried to visualize an ecosystem for

digital preservation, which is particularly relevant in Indian context. Our discussion is primarily based on following aspects Ecosystem for digital preservation Iterative lifecycle model for digital preservation

Experience of Digital Preservation at Indian Museums and other heritage archives

The proposed ecosystem and iterative lifecycle model of digital

preservation is conceived based on prior experience of working with the leading museums and heritage archives in India
Virtual Museum Builder. The HCDC group has worked with

following museums Salar Jung Museum, Hyderabad, India Chhatrapati Shivaji Museum (erstwhile Prince of Wales Museum), Mumbai, India Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum, Pune, India
