| Abstract | We study an approach to quality-of-service (QoS) that offers end-users the choice between two service classes defined according to their level of transmission protection. The fully protected (FP) class offers end-users a guarantee of survivability in the case of a single-link failure; all FP traffic is protected using a 1:1 protection scheme at the wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) layer. The best effort protected (BEP) class is not protected; instead restoration at the IP layer is provided. The FP service class mimics what Internet users receive today. The BEP traffic is designed to run over the large amounts of unused bandwidth that exist in today's Internet. The goal is to increase the load carried on backbone networks without reducing the QoS received by existing customers. To support two such services, we have to solve two problems: the off-line problem of mapping logical links to pairs of disjoint fiber paths, and an on-line scheduling problem for differentiating packets from two classes at the IP layer. We provide an algorithm based on a Tabu Search meta-heuristic to solve the mapping problem, and a simple but efficient scheduler based on weighted fair queueing for service differentiation at the IP layer. We consider numerous requirements that carriers face and illustrate the tradeoffs they induce. We demonstrate that we can successfully increase the total network load by a factor between three and ten and still meet all the carrier requirements. |

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.
