Optimal Admission Controllers for Service Level Agreements in Enterprise Networks

Overview The transmission of multimedia streams with a particular and guaranteed level of QoS (Quality of Service) from source to destination is a major challenge in multimedia communications over IP networks. This paper introduces a generalized, flexible form of the traditional SLA (Service Level Agreement) between users and network owners, for the transmission of a multimedia stream with several choices of QoS level. Admission control and adaptation of the SLAs to optimize a certain system performance criterion (e.g., maximum profit) while maintaining all QoS guarantees is defined as the SLA admission control problem.
