| Abstract | A new approach to determining the admissibility of variable bit rate (VBR) traffic in buffered digital networks is developed. In this approach all traffic presented to the network is assumed to have been subjected to leaky-bucket regulation, and extremal, periodic, on-off regulated traffic is considered; the analysis is based on fluid models. Each regulated traffic stream is allocated bandwidth and buffer resources which are independent of other traffic. Bandwidth and buffer allocations are traded off in a manner optimal for an adversarial situation involving minimal knowledge of other traffic. This leads to a single-resource statistical-multiplexing problem which is solved using techniques previously used for unbuffered traffic. VBR traffic is found to be divisible into two classes, one for which statistical multiplexing is effective and one for which statistical multiplexing is ineffective in the sense that accepting small losses provides no advantage over lossless performance. The boundary of the set of admissible traffic sources is examined, and is found to be sufficiently linear that an effective bandwidth can be meaningfully assigned to each VBR source, so long as only statistically-multiplexable sources are considered, or only nonstatistically-multiplexable sources are considered. If these two types of sources are intermixed, then nonlinear interactions occur and fewer sources can be admitted than a linear theory would predict. A qualitative characterization of the nonlinearities is presented. The complete analysis involves conservative approximations; however, admission decisions based on this work are expected to be less overly conservative than decisions based on alternative approaches.< |

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.
