| Abstract | Mobile personal livecast (MPL) services are emerging and have received great attention recently. Unlike traditional livecast services with commercial content providers (e.g., live TV), the live contents in MPL are crowdsourced from and consumed among geo-distributed individuals. Although there exist typical social relationships in MPL (i.e., follower-followee), different from conventional social networking services like Twitter and Facebook, which have much of a tolerance for interaction delay, the interactions in MPL must be in real-time. These unique characteristics intrigue us to investigate how the relationships (e.g., social links and geo-locations) between viewers and broadcasters influence the user behaviors, which has yet to be explored in depth. In this paper, we carry out extensive measurements of Inke, one of the most popular MPL providers, with a large-scale dataset containing 11M users. Our key findings are as follows. First, compared with traditional livecast services, the user interests shift much more frequently and the average viewing duration is considerably shorter in MPL. Second, the existence of social relationships significantly strengthens viewer stickiness---followers dedicating longer viewing time (contributing 81% of the total viewing time) and being 2x more patient when suffering poor network connectivity than non-followers. Third, most of the broadcasts in MPL are geographically local-popular (the majority of the views come from the same region of the broadcaster). Based on these critical observations, we provide insights that can enhance the MPL system design from the perspectives of efficient resource allocation and envision a future MPL framework that collaboratively utilizes the cloud and edge computing resources to improve efficiency and scalability for Inke-like services. |

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.
