| Abstract | In this paper we consider the problem of transmitting a collection of packets from a source node to a destination node across a relay network. We analyze a simple random network coding scheme where each node transmits a random linear combination of packets each time it has a transmission opportunity. Our goal is to determine the expected time required to transmit all packets from the source to the destination. The main result of this paper is an upper bound on the expected time to transmit a generation of packets across the network. We show that the expected time is bounded by a constant plus the number of packets divided by the capacity of the minimum cut separating the source from the destination. This extends similar results for line networks in [2], [3] to relay networks with arbitrarily many relay nodes. To facilitate our analysis, we model the relay network by a continuous-time Markov chain. Our primary analytical tool is a general method for computing upper bounds on hitting times associated with continuous-time Markov chains. We believe that this approach will also provide a method for analyzing transmission times associated with more general network topologies. |

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.
