| Abstract | We consider a web server that can provide differentiated services to clients with different QoS requirements. The web server can provide N > 1 classes of service. Rather than using a strict priority policy , which may lead to request starvation, the web server provides a proportional-delay differentiated service (PDDS) to heterogeneous clients. An operator for the web server can specify "fixed" performance spacings between classes, namely, ri,i+1 > 1, for i = 1,…,N - 1. Requests in class i + 1 are guaranteed to have an average waiting time which is 1/ri,i+1 of the average waiting time of class i requests. With PDDS, we can provide consistent performance spacings over a wide range of system loadings. In addition, each client can specify a maximum average waiting time requirement to be guaranteed by the web server. We propose two efficient admission control algorithms so that a web server can provide the QoS guarantees and, at the same time, classify each client to its "lowest" admissible class, resulting in lowest usage cost for the client. We also consider how to perform end-point dynamic adaptation such that clients can submit requests at lower class and further reduce their usage cost, without violating their QoS requirements. We propose two dynamic adaptation algorithms: one is server-based and the other is client-based. The client-based adaptation is based on a non-cooperative game technique. We report diverse experimental results to illustrate the effectiveness of these algorithms. |

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.
