| Abstract | There is a growing set of UDP (user datagram protocol) based applications using inadequate congestion control algorithms or none at all (i.e., the flow does not throttle back upon receipt of congestion notification). Such UDP applications include streaming applications like packet voice and video, and also multicast bulk data transfer. Congestion avoidance algorithms in routers are not able to handle these flows adequately and this leads to an unfair distribution of bandwidth among TCP and UDP flows in times of congestion. Moreover the random dropping of IP packets in times of congestion in routers causes a decreasing goodput delivered to the receiving application because whole TCP or UDP packets are discarded at the receiver when one IP packet is missed. This leads to retransmissions when using TCP and can cause serious problems with the display of a multimedia stream when using UDP. This paper proposes a method to overcome the mentioned problems by introducing an additional header into the IPv6-header (Internet Protocol Version 6 Draft Specification, 1998) to label the dependencies of several IP packets and distinguish between different flows at the IP level. A structured description of the application data contents helps to include dependencies of the application data level. The description is mapped onto several priority levels to describe the dependencies within an ADU (application data unit). This paper also explains the way to derive ADUs from the multimedia data and the benefit that can be taken from IP-labeling inside the Internet. As a technical basis, the concepts described in the paper are validated by a simulation study. |

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.
