| Abstract | Frequently, ISPs charge for Internet use not based on peak bandwidth usage, but according to a percentile (often the 95th percentile) cost model. In other words, the time slots with the top 5 percent (in the case of 95th percentile) of data transmission volume do not affect the cost of transmission. Instead, we are charged based on the volume of traffic sent in the 95th percentile slot. In such an environment, by allowing a short delay in transmission of some data, we may be able to reduce our cost considerably. We provide an optimal solution to the offline version of this problem (in which the job arrivals are known), for any delay D > 0. The algorithm works for any choice of percentile. We also show that there is no efficient deterministic online algorithm for this problem. However, for a slightly different problem, where the maximum amount of data transmitted is used for cost accounting, we provide an online algorithm with a competitive ratio of 2D+1/D+1. Furthermore, we prove that no online algorithm can achieve a competitive ratio better than 2D+1/D+F(D) where F(D) = $Σ_{i=1}^{D+1}$ i/D+i for any D > 0 in an adversarial setting. We also provide a heuristic that can be used in an online setting where the network traffic has a strong correlation over consecutive accounting cycles, based on the solution to the offline percentile problem. Experimental results are used to illustrate the performance of the algorithms proposed in this work. |

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.
