| Abstract | State-of-the-art Software Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) provide the foundation for flexible and highly resilient networking. In this work we design, implement and evaluate a novel architecture (denoted SABR) that leverages the benefits of SDN to provide network assisted Adaptive Bitrate Streaming. With clients retaining full control of their streaming algorithms we clearly show that by this network assistance, both the clients and the content providers benefit significantly in terms of QoE and content origin offloading. SABR utilizes information on available bandwidths per link and network cache contents to guide video streaming clients with the goal of improving the viewer's QoE. In addition, SABR uses SDN capabilities to dynamically program flows to optimize the utilization of CDN caches.; AB@Backed by our study of SDN assisted streaming we discuss the change in the requirements for network-to-player APIs that enables flexible video streaming. We illustrate the difficulty of the problem and the impact of SDN-assisted streaming on QoE metrics using various well established player algorithms. We evaluate SABR together with state-of-the-art DASH quality adaptation algorithms through a series of experiments performed on a real-world, SDN-enabled testbed network with minimal modifications to an existing DASH client. Our measurements show the substantial improvement in cache hitrates in conjunction with SABR indicating a rich design space for jointly optimized SDN-assisted caching architectures for video streaming applications. |

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.
