| Abstract | PROTOFLEX is an FPGA-accelerated hybrid simulation/emulation platform designed to support large-scale multiprocessor hardware and software research. Unlike prior attempts at FPGA multiprocessor system emulators, PROTOFLEX emulates full-system fidelity-i.e., runs stock commercial operating systems with I/O support. This is accomplished without undue effort by leveraging a hybrid emulation technique called transplanting. Our transplant technology uses FPGAs to accelerate only common-case behaviors while relegating infrequent, complex behaviors (e.g., I/O devices) to software simulation. By working in concert with existing full-system simulators, transplanting avoids the costly and unnecessary construction of the entire target system in FPGA. We report preliminary findings from a working hybrid PROTOFLEX emulator of an UltraSPARC workstation running Solaris 8. We have also started developing a novel multiprocessor emulation approach that interleaves the execution of many (10s to 100s) processor contexts onto a shared emulation engine. This approach decouples the scale and complexity of the FPGA host from the simulated system size but nevertheless enables us to scale the desired emulation performance by the number of emulation engines used. Together, the transplant and interleaving techniques enable us to develop full-system FPGA emulators of up to thousands of processors without an overwhelming development effort. |

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.
