| Abstract | In Cloud environment, Cloud Providers (CP) grant access to computing and storage resources through Web-portals. Resource virtualization is a key enabler for providing such services. Thanks to virtualization, multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) can be hosted by the same Physical Machine (PM). Existing CPs, such as Amazon Web Services and Windows Azure, offer pre-configured VMs with fixed-size computing, storage and network capacities. In this context, end-users can only choose from a set of predefined VM instances offered by the CPs. However, it is expected that, in the near-future, end-users will be able to access the Cloud without any restriction on the size of the required resources. They will be charged according to the amount of resources used. In such scenario, the major problem faced by a CP is to select the appropriate PM that will host a new VM while still satisfying the end-user requirements. This resource allocation problem is similar to the well-known online Bin Packing problem. In this paper, we investigate several algorithms that were proposed to solve the Bin Packing problem, and compare them in a Cloud environment in terms of resource utilization and percentage of dropped VMs. The novel concept of Resource Over-Reservation (ROR) is introduced as a mean to reduce the percentage of dropped VMs and to improve resource utilization. |

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.
