| Abstract | Computational Discovery Desktop (CDD) is an application-independent middleware that aids researchers in the daily interaction with distributed HPC resources. It provides computational project management at personal, research group, and inter-institutional collaboration levels. The CDD framework seamlessly integrates typical operations, including multi-user access to the project data, application deployment, input preparation, job scheduling, state gathering, data archival, etc. into the daily work of the researcher by offering a common interface to the frequently performed tasks. The implemented scheduling options support an extensive logic for job dependencies and submitting and cancelling a job at specific time and condition. The job state monitor ascertains the job progress and includes the ability to terminate the job if a predefined condition is met, e.g. the job is too slow due to system issues. The interface can easily be expanded to include additional operations. The users are free to choose the desired level of integration of their day-to-day operations into the CDD framework based on their individual habits and experience of interaction with HPC resources. CDD relies on a relational MySQL database back-end. It uses cron utility to perform the scheduled off-line tasks and to create periodic reports about job and project states. CDD uses XML format to manage the input files and to store the post-processed metadata. It comes with an extensive set of command-line tools for interaction with the user, which are written in Perl to simplify modification and to avoid compilation. CDD employs Globus Toolkit to conduct the certificate-based authentication and data transfer. Currently configured applications include NAMD, Amber, GROMACS, LAMMPS, and NWChem. The applications were tested on NCSA Blue Waters and TACC Stampede. |

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.
