| Abstract | Scheduling has a significant influence on application performance. Deciding on a quantum length can be very tricky, especially when concurrent applications have various characteristics. This is actually the case in virtualized cloud computing environments where virtual machines from different users are colocated on the same physical machine. We claim that in a multi-core virtualized platform, different quantum lengths should be associated with different application types. We apply this principle in a new scheduler called AQL_Sched. We identified 5 main application types and experimentally found the best quantum length for each of them. Dynamically, AQL_Sched associates an application type with each virtual CPU (vCPU) and schedules vCPUs according to their type on physical CPU (pCPU) pools with the best quantum length. Therefore, each vCPU is scheduled on a pCPU with the best quantum length. We implemented a prototype of AQL_Sched in Xen and we evaluated it with various reference benchmarks (SPECweb2009, SPECmail2009, SPEC CPU2006, and PARSEC). The evaluation results show that AQL_Sched outperforms Xen's credit scheduler. For instance, up to 20%, 10% and 15% of performance improvements have been obtained with SPECweb2009, SPEC CPU2006 and PARSEC, respectively. |

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.
