| Abstract | Traditional approaches to network supercomputing employ a master process and a large number of potentially undependable worker processes that must perform a collection of tasks on behalf of the master. In such a centralized scheme, the master process is a performance bottleneck and a single point of failure. This work develops an original approach that eliminates the master and instead uses a decentralized algorithm, where each worker is able to determine locally that all tasks have been performed, and to collect locally the results of all tasks. The failure model assumes that the average probability of a worker returning a wrong result is inferior to 1/2. A randomized synchronous algorithm for n processes and n tasks is presented. The algorithm terminates in Θ(log n) rounds, and it is proved that upon termination the workers know the results of all tasks with high probability, and that these results are correct with high probability. The message complexity of the algorithm is Θ(n log n), and the bit complexity is $O(n^{2}$ $log^{3}$ n). |

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.
