Abstract | Fair scheduling algorithms are an important component of most QoS mechanisms designed to support the performance guarantees required by real-time applications. In this paper, we present greedy fair queueing (GrFQ), a novel scheduler based on a greedy strategy of reducing the maximum difference in normalized service received by any two flows at each transmission boundary. We prove that the GrFQ scheduler achieves a better bound on the normalized lag than other known schedulers. We further propose a simplified version of the scheduler, called GrFQ-lite, which avoids the emulation of a fluid flow system and has a per-packet work complexity of O(1) in the computation of the timestamps. Borrowing from the field of economics, we use the Gini index as a measure of instantaneous fairness. Using real gateway traffic traces, we show that the GrFQ scheduler achieves better fairness than any other known scheduler at virtually all instants of time. We further show that the GrFQ-lite scheduler achieves equivalent or better fairness than other known schedulers including those that are significantly more computationally intensive in their emulation of the ideally fair fluid flow system. |

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.
