We consider the problem of resource reservation for networks. Current approaches for
resource reservation in integrated service networks adopt an all-or-nothing approach, where …

This paper studies the performance of deferred resource reservation in data networks.
Conventional resource reservation protocols, such as PNNI and RSVP adopt an all-or …

High-end networking applications such as e-commerce, multimedia, distributed data
analysis and advanced collaborative environments feature demanding end-to-end quality of …

Resource reservation is a essential component in providing QoS guarantees to distributed
multimedia applications that run over the internetwork. Early reservation systems, including …

As a result of perceived limitations of TCP/IP in supporting high-throughput applications,
significant efforts have recently been devoted to develop alternative architectures based on …

Resource reservation must operate in an efficient and scalable fashion, to accommodate the
rapid growth of the Internet. In this paper, we describe a distributed architecture for inter …

The current resource reservation protocol (RSVP) design has no reliability mechanism for
the delivery of control messages. Instead, RSVP relies on periodic refresh between routers …

Resource reservation needs to accommodate the rapidly growing size and increasing
service diversity of the Internet. Recently, hierarchical architectures have been proposed that …

This paper studies rerouting in advance reservation networks. Namely, a novel load-
balancing scheme is proposed to reroute admitted inactive reservations in order to lower …

This paper provides an initial look at how support for advance reservations affects the
complexity of the path selection process in networks. Advance reservations are likely to …
