| Abstract | In order to execute a program on a remote computer, it mustfirst be transferred over a network. This transmission incurs the over-head of network latency before execution can begin. This latency can vary greatly depending upon the size of the program., where it is located (e.g., on a local network or across the Internet), and the bandwidth available to retrieve the program. Existing technologies, like Java, require that a jle be filly transferred before it can start executing. For large files and low bandwidth lines, this delay can be significant.In this paper we propose and evaluate a non-strict form of mobile program execution. A mobile program is any program that is transferred to a different machine and executed. The goal of nonstrict execution is to overlap execution with transfer; allowing the program to start executing as soon as possible. Non-strict execution allows a procedure in the program to start executing as soon as its code and data have transferred. To enable this technology, we examine several techniques for rearranging procedures and reorganizing the data inside Java classjles. Our results show that nonstrict execution decreases the initial transfer delay between 31% and 56% on average, with an average reduction in overall execution time between 25% and 40%. |

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.
