    any sector without any exception.  In view of this importance
    of   information   systems  and   databases,   the   National
    Informatics  Centre,Khurda  District  Unit  has  successfully
    developed  and implemented the Module-I of DSS-ECODEV of  the
    district.   In  this  background the present  system  in  its
    current  form is designed by integrating Data, Technique  and
    Software  with  the related sectorwise  economic  development
    indicators.

    As  the  Block  is the smallest developmental  Unit  and  the
    district is the basic administrative unit in the country, and
    is a very important link in the chain of the Indian System of
    governance,  the  DSS-ECODEV provide the users  and  planners
    about  the  ranking of blocks in a district or district of  a
    state  according to their economic developments in  different
    sectors.    The  current  system   emphasis  the  stages   of
    developments  of  blocks  into five categories such  as  very
    developed, developed, developing, backward and very backward.
    The  data  source  of the software has  taken  from  District
    Statistical  Hand  Book  published  by  District  Statistical
    Office.   It  is a User-Friendly System which formulates  the
    models  on  its  own and generate various types  of  analysis
