| Abstract | Streaming video data over best effort networks is a challenging task concerning the quality of the received content. The quality decreases with the number of frames that are corrupted, lost or received after the playback time. The main reasons for lost, delayed or corrupted frames are overloaded streaming servers and crowded network paths. In order to deal with overloaded streaming servers and crowded network paths, we present the prototype of an innovative architecture called Proxy-to-Proxy (X2X). The three main components in the architecture are proxies (provided by end users), videos (replicated from original servers) and end-clients (requesting shared content). The behavior of the three components is defined by the so-called affinity model which consists of three levels. The first level covers the content replication from original to surrogate servers (also called proxies), the second level covers the collaboration between the proxies, and the third level covers the delivery from the proxies to the end-clients. Proxies, videos and end-clients have a certain affinity to each other. Only by changing the input parameters to the affinity functions, the overlay network behaves either like a classical 1) Content Delivery Network, 2) a Peer-to-Peer System or 3) a Proxy-to-Proxy overlay network --- which is a combination and generalization of the two former ones. |

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.
