Pricing Differentiated Services: A Game-Theoretic Approach

Overview The goal of this paper is to study pricing of differentiated services and its impact on the choice of service priority at equilibrium. The paper considers both TCP connections as well as non controlled (real time) connections. The performance measures (such as throughput and loss rates) are determined according to the operational parameters of a RED buffer management. The latter is assumed to be able to give differentiated services to the applications according to their choice of service class. The paper considers a best effort type of service differentiation where the QoS of connections is not guaranteed, but by choosing a better (more expensive) service class, the QoS parameters of a session can improve (as long as the service class of other sessions are fixed).
