| Abstract | More and more multicast communications are becoming real-time. In real-time communications, messages must be transmitted to their destination nodes within a certain amount of time; otherwise the messages will be rendered futile. To support real-time multicast communications, computer networks have to guarantee an upper bound on the end-to-end delay from the source node to each of the destination nodes. This is known as the multicast end-to-end delay problem. On the other hand, if the same message fails to arrive at each destination node at the same time, there will probably arise inconsistency or unfairness problem among users. This is related to the multicast delay variation problem. Our research subject is concerned with the minimization of multicast delay variation under the multicast end-to-end delay constraint. The problem has been proved to be NP-complete and a heuristic algorithm for it called DVMA (delay variation multicast algorithm) has been proposed. In this paper we find that in spite of DVMA's smart performance in terms of multicast delay variations, its time complexity is as high as O(klmn/sup 4/). It is strongly believed that such a high time complexity does not fit in a modern high-speed computer network environment. Therefore, we present an alternative heuristic algorithm with a much lower time complexity O(mn/sup 2/) and with a satisfactory performance. Computer simulations also testify that our algorithm is both fast and efficient. |

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.
