| Abstract | Recently, high-performance mobile computer devices such as smart phones and tablet devices spread rapidly. They have attracted attention as a new promising platform for parallel and distributed applications. Based on the background, we are developing a cluster computer system using mobile devices or single board computers running Android OS. However, since mobile devices can move anywhere, node computers might leave from the cluster and new nodes might join the cluster. In this paper, we present an Android Cluster system that can reconfigure the system’s scale dynamically. Our system can automatically detect the change in the number of computation nodes and reconfigure the cluster’s nodes, even while parallel and distributed application is running. Furthermore, we show preliminary performance results of our system. The results show that our cluster provides the scalable performance to the number of nodes in parallel computation. Finally, it is confirmed that the mechanism of load balancing per process basis and the mechanism of switching to efficient data communication method can reduce the execution time of parallel applications. Our evaluation result shows that the execution time can be reduced up to 11.8% by load balancing per process basis, as compared to the load balancing per node basis, and shows that the execution time can be reduced 68% at maximum, by switching the communication method between processes to efficient one. |

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.
