| Abstract | The seventh international symposium on asynchronous circuits and systems, in Salt Lake City, March 2001, featured a presentation with the challenging title 'Where are the Async Millionaires?' The morale of this invited talk by Kevin Normoyle, a Distinguished Engineer at Sun Microsystems, was that if the asynchronous community claims that their technology is so promising, why doesn't the technology create greed and fear. Greed in the sense that asynchronous technology might enable you to outperform your competition by exploiting unique possibilities, and fear that the competition may be doing this. The talk demonstrated an absence of fear and greed in the area of high performance computing. The number of asynchronous millionaires was proposed as a way to measure success. We are now at the fourteenth ASYNC conference in Newcastle, and seven years have passed. Today, hundreds of millions of asynchronous circuits are produced every year, and many of us may use it on a daily basis without being aware of it. As an example, asynchronous circuits designed using Handshake Solutions' Timeless Design Environment (TiDE) may be found in the vast majority of electronic (biometric) passports, in in-vehicle networks like CAN and LIN, in MEMS-based sensors such as for measuring tire pressure, in access-control systems, and in Near Field Communication devices such as Nokia's 6131 NFC phone. In the talk, the author want to address some of the steps that have been taken to bring this disruptive technology to the market, and the challenges that had and have to be overcome. It is now obvious to the author that asynchronous technology can create greed and fear. It should be only a matter of time before the first asynchronous millionaires arise. |

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.
