| Abstract | Many network management applications use as their data traffic volumes differentiated by attributes such as IP address or port number. IP flow records are commonly collected for this purpose: these enable determination of fine-grained usage of network resources. However, the increasingly large volumes of flow statistics incur concomitant costs in the resources of the measurement infrastructure. This motivates sampling of flow records.This paper addresses sampling strategy for flow records. Recent work has shown that non-uniform sampling is necessary in order to control estimation variance arising from the observed heavy-tailed distribution of flow lengths. However, while this approach controls estimator variance, it does not place hard limits on the number of flows sampled. Such limits are often required during arbitrary downstream sampling, resampling and aggregation operations employed in analysis of the data.This paper proposes a correlated sampling strategy that is able to select an arbitrarily small number of the "best" representatives of a set of flows. We show that usage estimates arising from such selection are unbiased, and show how to estimate their variance, both offline for modeling purposes, and online during the sampling itself. The selection algorithm can be implemented in a queue-like data structure in which memory usage is uniformly bounded during measurement. Finally, we compare the complexity and performance of our scheme with other potential approaches. |

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.
