| Abstract | The problem of writing high performance parallel applications becomes even more challenging when irregular, sparse or adaptive methods are employed. In this paper we introduce compiler and runtime support for programs with indirect array accesses into Titanium, a high-level language that combines an explicit SPMD parallelism model with implicit communication through a global shared address space. By combining the well-known inspector-executor technique with high level multi-dimensional array constructs, compiler analysis and performance modeling, we demonstrate optimizations that are entirely hidden from the programmer. The global address space makes the programs easier to write than in message passing, with remote array accesses used in place of explicit messages with data packing and unpacking. The programs are also faster than message passing programs: using sparse matrix-vector multiplication programs, we show that the Titanium code is an average of 21% faster across several matrices and machines, with the best case speedup more than a factor of 2x. The performance advantages are due to both the lightweight RDMA (remote direct memory access) communication model that underlies the Titanium implementation and automatic optimization selection that adapts the communication to the machine and workload, in some cases using different communication models for different processors within a single computation. |

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.
