| Abstract | Channelization is the problem of forming multicast groups from inputs of a set of flows, a set of users and a set of user preferences, along with an upper bound on the number of groups. Channelization aims to construct groups such that the network cost is substantially smaller than using a single multicast group which delivers all flows to all users. In this paper we introduce an incremental version of channelization wherein the input may change over time. When such a change occurs, one approach is to totally recompute the channelization solution. In contrast, in the incremental approach taken here, the solution for the original channelization instance is updated to become a solution for the modified channelization instance. The goal is to produce a solution of high quality in substantially less time than it would take to do a full recomputation. In this context we study incremental channelization problems corresponding to adding a flow and adding a user. For these two problems we provide complexity results and incremental algorithms. Specifically we show: 1) that natural incremental approaches are NP-hard; 2) that approximating the optimal solution within a log factor is unlikely; and 3) give a greedy algorithm with a performance within a log factor of the optimal (in light of our result 2, this is the best possible approximation result). In addition to the theoretical results, a case study is given for the problem of adding a flow, providing simulation results comparing the effectiveness of the solutions produced by our incremental algorithms with solutions from algorithms doing full recomputation. |

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.
