The Differentiated Services architecture aims at providing scalable network Quality of
Service by means of aggregate scheduling. However, the defined framework itself only gives …

Service-oriented architectures (SOA), though widely accepted in a variety of industries, must
be enhanced to support real-time activities in order to gain even greater adoption. We …

Abstract The Differentiated Services framework allows to provide scalable network Quality of
Service by aggregate scheduling. Services, like a Premium class, can be defined to offer a …

In open and heterogeneous environments, where an unpredictable number of applications
compete for a limited amount of resources, executions can be affected by also unpredictable …

The idea of Internet everywhere makes the assumption that an Internet access should be
available even in remote areas without network infrastructure. In this case satellite access …

Current resource reservation architectures for multimedia networks do not scale well for a
large number of flows. We propose a new architecture that automatically aggregates flows …

A simple technique could eliminate choke points on the the Internet. TCP switching, which
integrates circuit switching benefits in the packet-switched Internet, demonstrates the …

This paper argues that all network providers in a connectionless multi-service network
should offer each class of their service to each neighbour for each direction at a single price …

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) that exists over a public network infrastructure like the
Internet is both cheaper and more flexible than a network comprising dedicated semi …

A dynamic quality of service (QoS) mapping control scheme, which includes feedforward
and feedback QoS control, is proposed for the differentiated services (DiffServ) networks in …
