| Abstract | Residential broadband consumption is growing rapidly, increasing the gap between ISP costs and revenues. Meanwhile, proliferation of Internet-enabled devices is congesting access networks, frustrating end-users and content providers. We propose that ISPs virtualize access infrastructure, using open APIs supported through SDN, to enable dynamic and controlled sharing amongst user streams. Content providers can programmatically provision capacity to user devices to ensure quality of experience, users can match the degree of virtualization to their usage pattern, and ISPs can realize per-stream revenues by slicing their network resources. Using video streaming and bulk transfers as examples, we develop an architecture that specifies the interfaces between the ISP, content provider, and user. We propose an algorithm for optimally allocating network resources, leveraging bulk transfer time elasticity and access path space diversity. Simulations using real traces show that virtualization can reduce video degradation by over 50%, for little extra bulk transfer delay. Lastly, we prototype our system and validate it in a test-bed with real video streaming and file transfers. Our proposal is a first step towards the long-term goal of realizing open and agile access network service quality management that is acceptable to users, ISPs and content providers alike. |

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.
