| Abstract | The SKA (Square Kilometre Array) radio telescope will become the most sensitive telescope by correlating a large number of antenna nodes to form a giant antenna array. The data generated from such a large number of antenna nodes will pose a huge storage problem and require real-time data processing to make the best use of data, and the SKA Scientific Data Processing becomes the bottleneck of the whole processing flow. However, the existing high-performance CPU- and GPU (Graphics Processing Unit)-based solutions cannot satisfy the performance requirements and power budget requirements well [1]. Due to the consideration of the high energy efficiency of hardware accelerators and the flexibility and cost of prototype design, in this paper, we explore the FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array)-based prototype of one of the most computationally demanding procedures in SKA scientific data processing: degridding. Through the analysis of algorithm behavior and bottlenecks, we design and optimize the memory architecture and computing logic of an FPGA-based prototype. Besides, with the consideration of the relations between the required data of processing multiple spectral channels, we reuse the shared data in processing neighboring spectral channels, and the performance further improves. The functionality and performance of our design have been verified on the target FPGA board, and the software-based benchmarks were also measured on comparable CPU and GPU platforms, indicating that the FPGA-based prototype achieves 2.74 times and 2.03 times speedup, 7.64 times and 7.42 times energy efficiency than the MPI(Message Passing Interface)-based CPU benchmark and the CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture)-based GPU benchmark, respectively. |

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.
