| Abstract | This paper presents the open-source COREMU, a scalable and portable parallel emulation framework that decouples the complexity of parallelizing full-system emulators from building a mature sequential one. The key observation is that CPU cores and devices in current (and likely future) multiprocessors are loosely-coupled and communicate through well-defined interfaces. Based on this observation, COREMU emulates multiple cores by creating multiple instances of existing sequential emulators, and uses a thin library layer to handle the inter-core and device communication and synchronization, to maintain a consistent view of system resources. COREMU also incorporates lightweight memory transactions, feedback-directed scheduling, lazy code invalidation and adaptive signal control to provide scalable performance. To make COREMU useful in practice, we also provide some preliminary tools and APIs that can help programmers to diagnose performance problems and (concurrency) bugs. A working prototype, which reuses the widely-used QEMU as the sequential emulator, is with only 2500 lines of code (LOCs) changes to QEMU. It currently supports x64 and ARM platforms, and can emulates up to 255 cores running commodity OSes with practical performance, while QEMU cannot scale above 32 cores. A set of performance evaluation against QEMU indicates that, COREMU has negligible uniprocessor emulation overhead, performs and scales significantly better than QEMU. We also show how COREMU could be used to diagnose performance problems and concurrency bugs of both OS kernel and parallel applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
