| Abstract | Concurrency is used in modern software systems as a means of addressing performance, availability, and reliability requirements. The collaboration of multiple independently executing components is fundamental to meeting such requirements and such collaboration is realized by synchronizing component execution.Using current technologies developers are faced with a tension between correct synchronization and performance. Developers can be confident when simple forms of synchronization are used, for example, locking all accesses to shared data. Unfortunately, such simple approaches can result in significant run-time overhead, and, in fact, there are many cases in which such simple approaches cannot implement required synchronization policies. Implementing more sophisticated (and less constraining) synchronization policies may improve run-time performance and satisfy synchronization requirements, but fundamental difficulties in reasoning about concurrency make it difficult to assess their correctness.This paper describes an approach to automatically synthesizing complex synchronization implementations from formal high-level specifications. Moreover, the generated coded is designed to be processed easily by software model-checking tools such as Bandera. This enables the generated synchronization solutions to be verified for important system correctness properties. We believe this is an effective approach because the tool-support provided makes it simple to use, it has a solid semantic foundation, it is language independent, and we have demonstrated that it is powerful enough to solve numerous challenging synchronization problems. |

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.
