Hindi belongs to the Indo-Aryan (Indic) languages, and Dogri language also belongs to the same subgroup of the Indo-European family, i.e., Indo-Aryan family of languages. The script of Hindi language is Devanagari and Dogri has its own script namely, ɖogəra əkk h ər or ɖogər; but now the younger generation has adopted nagəri script for Dogri. As such, almost all the modern literature has been and is being written in devanagəri. For the development of Machine Translation system from Hindi to Dogri Language, there is a need to find the similarity between both the languages. It is found that both the languages are closely related to each other.This paper explains the closeness between the Hindi and Dogri Language scripts.

The system which is developed for translation of languages by the researchers is known as machine translation system. There are different types of Machine Translation systems are developed with the change of time and for the need of more accuracy in the translation. No doubt the development of MT systems proved to be great achievement in the field of science and technology. But such achievement was not that easy. Different challenges and issues were faced by various researchers during the development of their MT systems. This paper focuses on the challenges and problems faced during the development of Dogri-Hindi SMT system. This paper also discusses the steps that are taken under consideration to overcome that challenges.
A Study to Examine the Digital Divide Factors: Jammu and Kashmir Perspective

Despite the boom in the availability of access to communication resources since the beginning of the 1990s, the divide is deepening and the differences in the usage of communication resources between countries and regions intensifying. Even though the rural areas have benefitted to some extent from the boom in access to communication resources, the regional divide is more pronounced within the developing countries. Factors influencing digital divide vary from region to region. In an attempt to find the factors responsible for the digital divide in Jammu and Kashmir region, a pilot survey was conducted. This paper reports on the results of this pilot study. The study was conducted by floating questionnaires and by interviewing people of rural as well as urban areas. Questions were related to internet access, its usage, prob...

Most of the languages have ambiguous words. Resolution to these ambiguous words is a very importance task in developing any tool for natural language processing which otherwise hampers the efficiency of the developed systems. The accuracy of the output generated depends on the sense of the context a word is being used in a sentence. Word Sense Disambiguation is used for resolving the ambiguous words. This paper presents a brief introduction to Word Sense Disambiguation, an overview of the approaches that can be used solving ambiguity and work done for various Indian languages.
