| Abstract | The Index Coding problem has recently attracted a significant interest from the research community. In this problem, a server needs to deliver a set of packets to a group of wireless clients over a noiseless broadcast channel. Each client requests a subset of packets and has another subset given to it as side information. The objective is to satisfy the demands of all clients with the minimum number of transmissions. In this paper, we study the Index Coding problem from the game-theoretic perspective. We assume that each client is selfish and has a hidden private value for each packet it requests. The objective of the server is to maximize the value of social welfare that captures the trade-off between values of the transmitted packets and the transmission cost incurred by the server. The transmission process is decided through an auction in which the clients are required to submit bids to the server. Our goal is to design a truthful auction scheme that provides an incentive for each client to bid the true value of the packets and maximizes the value of the social welfare. The key challenge in this context is to determine the encoding functions of the transmitted packets. Since finding an optimal encoding function is an NP-hard problem, we propose efficient algorithms that identify the encoding functions as well as a payment scheme that provide an approximate solution and guarantee truthfulness. |

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.
