| Abstract | We study how to improve the throughput of high-bandwidth traffic such as large file transfers in a network where resources are fairly shared among connections. While it is possible to devise priority or reservation-based schemes that give high-bandwidth traffic preferential treatment at the expense of other connections, we focus on the use of routing algorithms that improve resource allocation while maintaining max-min fair share semantics. In our approach, routing is closely coupled with congestion control in the sense that congestion information, such as the rates allocated to existing connections, is used by the routing algorithm. To reduce the amount of routing information that must be distributed, an abstraction of the congestion information is introduced. Using an extensive set of simulation, we identify a link-cost or cost metric for "shortest-path" routing that performs uniformly better than the minimal-hop routing and shortest-widest path routing algorithms. To further improve throughput without reducing the fair share of single-path connections, we propose a novel prioritized multi-path routing algorithm in which low priority paths share the bandwidth left unused by higher priority paths. This leads to a conservative extension of max-min fairness called prioritized multi-level max-min fairness. Simulation results confirm the advantages of our multi-path routing algorithm. |

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.
