| Abstract | In finance, securities, such as stocks, funds, warrants and bonds, are actively traded in financial markets. Abundance of market data and accurate pricing of a security can help the practitioners arbitrage or hedge their position. It can also help researhers and traders design better trading strategies. In this work, we develop a pricing and data/information service system for financial analytics with the following goals: (1) supporting fast pricing and data/information services for massive multiple users, (2) saving cost in hardware equipments and reducing energy consumption, and (3) easy maintenance and service expansion of the system. To achieve the first two goals, we use one traditional server paired with one Tesla C1060 and a set of PCs each paired with an Nvidia x275, and enhance GPU performance using a set of simple yet very effective optimization techniques. For the third goal, we develop our service system based on Web Service and the Service-Oriented-Architecture design principles. Our initial experiment results show that our GPU-based service system can deliver 4.8 tera flops computing speed, which achieves over 6000\% performance increase compared to a cluster of eight Intel i7 quad-core servers. Cost-wise, the GPU-based service system costs 40\% of the i7 server cluster, and consumes 50\% of energy that is required by the i7 cluster. We also gives an overview of our system architecture and describe the workflow for processing pricing and information service requests. |

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.
