Project Summary

Future communication networks will support a broad variety of services. Among these, some will have strict Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, for example telephony and interactive video. The QoS delivered by the current Internet, based on IP, can be described as best effort: no guarantees are provided. Since this is not adequate to support real time applications, resource management mechanisms are proposed to enable the support of QoS in IP networks. In this project the effectiveness of these QoS enabling mechanisms are evaluated.

Project duration: 2001-2005

Project budget: 272.7 k-€

Number of person/years: 2.2 fte

Involved groups: Stochastic Operations Research (SOR) / Design and Analysis of Communication Systems (DACS)

CTIT Strategic Research Orientation: ASI (A-services Internet – Programme closed)
