| Abstract | The recent design shift towards multicore processors has spawned a significant amount of research in the area of program paralleliza- tion. The future abundance of cores on a single chip requires pro- grammer and compiler intervention to increase the amount of par- allel work possible. Much of the recent work has fallen into the areas of coarse-grain parallelization: new programming models and different ways to exploit threads and data-level parallelism. This work focuses on a complementary direction, improving per- formance through automated fine-grain parallelization. The main difficulty in achieving a performance benefit from fine-grain paral- lelism is the distribution of data memory accesses across the data caches of each core. Poor choices in the placement of data ac- cesses can lead to increased memory stalls and low resource utiliza- tion. We propose a profile-guided method for partitioning mem- ory accesses across distributed data caches. First, a profile deter- mines affinity relationships between memory accesses and work- ing set characteristics of individual memory operations in the pro- gram. Next, a program-level partitioning of the memory opera- tions is performed to divide the memory accesses across the data caches. As a result, the data accesses are proactively dispersed to reduce memory stalls and improve computation parallelization. A final detailed partitioning of the computation instructions is per- formed with knowledge of the cache location of their associated data. Overall, our data partitioning reduces stall cycles by up to 51% versus data-incognizant partitioning, and has an overall speedup average of 30% over a single core processor. |

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.
