Hi Everyone

If I have data from four miRNA libraries. One of the libraries have 4 times more reads than other three libraries. How will the data be normalized among different libraries? People use EDGER and DESeq for normalization. Although, I do understand the basic concept of total count methods. But I do not understand how these softwares do the normalization (I mean the scaling factors) and how effective is that normalization on cases like I described above. 

Any explanation would be highly appreciated.

Thanks
