| Abstract | A fundamental problem in parallel computing is to design high-level, architecture independent, algorithms that execute efficiently on general purpose parallel machines. The aim is to be able to achieve portability and high performance simultaneously. A key to accomplishing this is the existence of a computation model that can bridge the gap between the high level programming models and the underlying hardware models. There are currently two factors that make this fundamental problem more tractable. The first is the emergence of a dominant parallel architecture consisting of a number of powerful microprocessors interconnected by either a proprietary interconnect, or a standard off-the-shelf interconnect (such as an ATM switch). The second factor is the emergence of standards, such as the message passing standard MPI, for which efficient implementations are either available or about to appear on most machines. Our recent work has exploited these two developments by developing a methodology based on (1) a simple computation model for the current MIMD platforms that incorporates communication cost into the complexity of the algorithms, and (2) a SPMD programming model that makes effective use of communication primitives. We describe our approach for validating the computation model based on extensive experimentation and the development of benchmarks, and discuss its extension to the emerging clusters of Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs) architecture. |

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.
