| Abstract | This paper presents data confirming the fact that traditional vector architectures can not reduce their vector register length without suffering a severe performance penalty. However, we will show that by combining the vector register length reduction with two different ILP techniques, decoupling and multithreading, the performance penalty can be made very small. We will show that each resulting architecture tolerates very well long memory latencies and also makes a better usage of the available storage space in each vector register. Using decoupling and short vectors, each register can be halved while still providing speedups in the range 1.04--1.49 over a traditional architecture with long registers. Using multithreading, we split a vector register file in two halfs and show that two independent threads running on such machine can yield speedups in the range 1.23--1.29 . The paper also explores configurations with 1/4 and 1/8 the original vector register size aimed at cost-conscious designs, and shows that even at 1/4 the original size, the resulting architectures can outperform a traditional machine. We also present results across a wide range of memory latencies, and show that the combination of short vectors and ILP techniques results in a very good tolerance of slow memory systems. |

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.
