Future high-spccd networks that will support intcgrated video. voice and data applications
are expected to utilize the concepts of ATM fast packct switching (bascd on fixcd-size …

This paper deals with the performance of delay-sensitive applications running over a
network that offers multiple classes of service, where the adaption of application rates in …

Best effort service, used to transport the Internet traffic today, does not provide any QoS
assurances. Intserv, DiffServ and recently proposed Proportional Diff-Serv architectures …

Fair and Delay Adaptive Scheduler (FDAS) is a scheduling mechanism that dynamically
adapts to the incoming traffic flows' requirements in term of bandwidth allocation, delay …

Abstract Alternative Best-Effort (ABE) is a novel service for IP networks which offers
applications the choice between receiving a lower end-to-end delay and receiving more …

We consider the problem of link provisioning in a differentiated services network that offers N
classes of service. At the provisioning phase, the network manager configures the link to …

A novel algorithm for buffer management and rate allocation is presented for providing loss
and delay differentiation for traffic classes at a network router. The algorithm, called JoBS …

Class-based service differentiation can be realized without resource reservation, admission
control and traffic policing. However, the resulting service guarantees are only relative, in the …

Although guaranteed rate (GR) schedulers such as WFQ (weighted fair queueing) can
provide a hard delay bound for a leaky-bucket-conditioned traffic flow, the bandwidth …

We address the problem of short term QoS, caused by unexpected nature of traffic and
expectation of high utilization, by using measurement based adaptive bandwidth control. We …
