| Abstract | Calls that make large, persistent demands for network resources will be denied consistent service, unless the network employs adequate control mechanisms. Calls of this type include video conferences. Although overprovisioning network capacity would increase the likelihood of accepting these calls, it is a very expensive option to apply uniformly in a large network, especially as the calls require high bandwidth and low blocking probabilities. Such large calls typically require coordination of geographically distributed facilities and people at the end systems. So it is natural to book the network requirements ahead of their actual use. We present a new, effective admission control algorithm for booking ahead network services. The admission control is based on a novel application of effective bandwidth theory to the time domain. Systematic and comprehensive simulation experiments provide an understanding of how booking ahead affects call blocking and network utilization, considering call duration, number of links, bandwidth, routing, and the mix of book ahead versus immediate arrival traffic. Allowing some calls to book ahead radically reduces their chance of service denial, while allowing flexible and efficient sharing of network resources with normal calls that do not book ahead. |

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.
