| Abstract | This paper introduces Wave and Equation Based Rate Control (WEBRC), the first multiple rate multicast congestion control protocol to be equation based. The equation-based approach enforces fairness to TCP with the benefit that fluctuations in the flow rate are small in comparison to TCP.This paper also introduces the multicast round trip time (MRTT), a multicast analogue of the unicast round trip time (RTT). The MRTT is fundamental to the equation-based protocol that each receiver uses to adjust its reception rate. Each receiver independently measures its own MRTT without placing any added messaging burden on the receiver, the sender or the intermediate network elements. Benefits provided by the MRTT include those that the RTT provides to TCP, e.g., reduced reception rates in reaction to buffer filling and fair sharing of bottleneck links. In addition, the use of MRTT is shown to synchronize and equalize the reception rates of proximate receivers and to cause reception rates to increase as the density of receivers increases.Another innovation of WEBRC is the idea of transmitting data with waves: the transmission rate on a channel is periodic, with an exponentially decreasing form during an active period followed by a quiescent period. Benefits of using waves include insensitivity to large IGMP leave latency; a frequency of joins and leaves by each receiver that is small and independent of the receiver reception rate; the use of a small number of multicast channels; fine-grained control over the receiver reception rate; and minimal, at times nonexistent, losses due to buffer overflow. |

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.
