| Abstract | We propose a reservation-based sustainable adaptive Grid supercomputing paradigm to enable tightly coupled computations of considerable scale (involving over 1,000 processors) and duration (over tens of continuous days) on a Grid of geographically distributed parallel supercomputers. The paradigm is demonstrated for an adaptive multiscale simulation application, in which accurate but compute-intensive quantum mechanical (QM) simulations are embedded within a classical molecular dynamics (Md) simulation only when and where high fidelity is required. Key technical innovations include: 1) an embedded divide-and-conquer algorithmic framework to maximally expose data and computation localities for enhanced scalability; 2) a buffered-cluster hybridization scheme to adaptively adjust MD/QM boundaries to maintain the model accuracy; and 3) a hybrid Grid remote procedure call (GridRPC) + message passing interface (MPI) Grid application framework to combine flexibility (adaptive resource allocation and migration), fault tolerance (automated fault recovery), and efficiency (scalable management of large computing resources). We have achieved an automated execution of multiscale MD/QM simulation on a Grid consisting of 6 supercomputer centers in Japan and the US (in total of 150 thousand processor-hours) for the dynamic simulation of implanted oxygen atoms in a silicon substrate, in which the number of processors changes dynamically on demand and resources are allocated and migrated dynamically according to both reservations and unexpected faults. The simulation results reveal a strong dependence of the oxygen penetration depth on the incident oxygen-beam position, which is useful information to further advance SIMOX (separation by implanted oxygen) technique to fabricate high speed and low power-consumption semiconductor devices. |

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.
