| Abstract | This article proposes and evaluates measures for estimating the service time of a web client using server logs, only from the server side without introducing traffic into the network. The HTTP protocol is described as well as the different interactions between the web server, the communication components, and the web client application. The first measure is based on the time it takes for the web server application to deliver an object to its operating system, keeping in mind the buffer effect of the server network. The second measure also considers the inter-arrival times to the server application of the GET requests for the objects that are part of a web page. We propose formulas, validated experimentally, that relate the proposed measurements in the server with the different components that take part in a web transaction and the service time experienced by clients. We have carried out several experiments to evaluate the validity of the proposed measurements and the best measure estimates the service time of the client with an error below 20% for 90% of the requests. We observed a cyclic component in the measurements of the server that can simplify the estimation of future values. For this reason, the proposed measures may be used to know what is the service time the client perceives in each visit to a server. It can also be used by content distribution networks to choose between several replica located in different places in the Internet. |

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.
