| Abstract | The main challenge in overlay multicasting is designing self-organizing mechanisms that can be able to exploit the inherent selfishness of the end-user nodes in such a way that the aggregate outcome of the activity of individual nodes behaving toward their own self-interests still leads to maximization of the network’s aggregate utility. We believe that the microeconomic theory is a good candidate to investigate this problem. Since each consumer in the economy acts as a selfish utility maximizer, the behavior of each end-host in the overlay network can be mapped to that of a consumer in the economy. We present a competitive economical framework in which a number of independent services are provided to the users by a number of origin servers. Each offered service can be thought of as a good and the origin servers and the users who relay the service to their downstream nodes can thus be thought of as firms of the economy. Also, the end-hosts can be viewed as consumers in the economy. On joining to the overlay network, each end-host is provided with an income and tries to obtain the services. The mechanism tries to regulate the price of each service in such a way that general equilibrium holds. For this property to hold in all generality, it tries to find a vector of prices such that demand of each service becomes equal to its supply. So, all allocations will be Pareto optimal in the sense that maximize welfare of the users. |

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.
