SMILE is powered by EduPak, a platform based upon Fedora open source repository software (http://ncore.nsdl.org/). This includes a collection management system called the NCS (NSDL Cataloging System) which provides cataloging capabilities. SMILE has created a customized version of the NCS that includes special metadata fields.
