Dig into the howtos, you'll surely get something on these too.
- Plugins
This got me started on dynamically loaded libraries.

Also, I am a bit confused about how exactly plugins are implemented. In my case, all algorithms perform the same task but internally the processing differs. So do i implement a common API which my main program ( can I call it a server? ) will use to communicate with that plugin? Once the API standardized, can people simply add new algorithms by implementing the same API?
Yes, a common interface is key to pluggability.
