Abstract | We would like to know if Java developers are retrofitting applications to become concurrent and, to get better performance on multicore machines. Also, we would like to know what concurrent programming constructs they currently use. Evidence of how programmers write concurrent programs can help other programmers to be more efficient when using the available constructs. Moreover, this evidence can assist researchers in devising new mechanisms and improving existing ones. For this purpose, we have conducted a study targeting a large-scale Java open source repository, SourceForge. We have analyzed a number of FLOSS projects along two dimensions: spatial and temporal. For the spatial dimension, we studied the latest versions of more than 2000 projects. Our goal is to understand which constructs developers of concurrent systems employ and how frequently they use them. For the temporal dimension we took a closer look at various versions of six projects and analyzed how the use of concurrency constructs has evolved over time. In addition, we tried to establish if uses of concurrency control constructs were aimed at leveraging multicore processors. We have downloaded more than two thousand Java projects including their various versions, in addition to individual analysing about six well known open-source projects. |

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.
