Abstract | In this paper we consider the bandwidth allocation problem where multiple low power wireless devices share a common time-slotted channel for transmitting to a single server. Due to energy constraints, these devices alternate between common active and inactive periods, the former typically much smaller than the latter. At the beginning of each active period the server decides which user(s) can access the common channel. This decision is based on the knowledge of the current backlog and connectivity of each queue. In each time slot an active user may or may not be connected to the server. If a user is connected to the server, it can transmit with a certain success probability. Arrivals are arbitrary and there is a cost for holding a packet in the queue. Different queues have different packet holding costs leading to differentiated services. We consider the problem of minimizing the total discounted cost over a finite or infinite horizon and provide sufficient conditions under which a greedy policy is optimal. We consider two connectivity models: (1) there is no information about connectivity statistics, and (2) connectivity probability is independent from one time slot to the other (memoryless channel). We show that in each of these cases it is optimal to serve the user with the highest one step reward (smallest one step cost) if this gain is sufficiently larger than that from serving the other users. The sufficient condition is shown to be asymptotically tight in special cases. |

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.
