Abstract | Streaming video over the best effort Internet raises some challenging issues. The available bandwidth and packet transmission delays are often subject to severe changes. As a consequence, a significant ratio of video packets is dropped by network routers because of lack of capacity on congested links. The impacts of video packet drops on the observed quality at the receiver may vary from unnoticeable to unacceptable. This is due to the different values of each video packet for the decoding process at the receiver. Classical queueing disciplines do not have the ability to distinguish between different packet values. It is not unusual that a packet of higher value is dropped in favor of lower valued packet. The value of a packet is measured in terms of the induced distortions when the packet is not received correctly. In this study, we introduce an application specific queueing system, which drops packets in a size-distortion optimized manner. Out of all packets present in the queue, the system selects the packets to be dropped in order to meet a queue size constraint while minimizing the overall distortion if necessary. Improvements in video quality for the receiver and an efficient utilization of the available bandwidth have been observed through different simulations. |

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.
