| Abstract | A consistent update installs a new packet-forwarding policy across the switches of a software-defined network in place of an old policy. While doing so, such an update guarantees that every packet entering the network either obeys the old policy or the new one, but not some combination of the two. In this paper, we introduce new algorithms that trade the time required to perform a consistent update against the rule-space overhead required to implement it. We break an update in to k rounds that each transfer part of the traffic to the new configuration. The more rounds used, the slower the update, but the smaller the rule-space overhead. To ensure consistency, our algorithm analyzes the dependencies between rules in the old and new policies to determine which rules to add and remove on each round. In addition, we show how to optimize rule space used by representing the minimization problem as a mixed integer linear program. Moreover, to ensure the largest flows are moved first, while using rule space efficiently, we extend the mixed integer linear program with additional constraints. Our initial experiments show that a 6-round, optimized incremental update decreases rule space overhead from 100% to less than 10%. Moreover, if we cap the maximum rule-space overhead at 5% and assume the traffic flow volume follows Zipf's law, we find that 80% of the traffic may be transferred to the new policy in the first round and 99% in the first 3 rounds. |

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.
