Design, Implementation and Evaluation of a QoS-Aware Transport Protocol

Tags:
quality of service

Overview In the context of a reconfigurable transport protocol framework, the paper proposes a QoS-aware Transport Protocol (QSTP), specifically designed to operate over QoS-enabled networks with bandwidth guarantee. QSTP combines QoS-aware TFRC congestion control mechanism, which takes into account the network-level bandwidth reservations, with a Selective ACKnowledgment (SACK) mechanism in order to provide a QoS-aware transport service that fill the gap between QoS enabled network services and QoS constraint applications. The paper has developed a prototype of this protocol in the user-space and conducted a large range of measurements to evaluate this proposal under various network conditions.

Ipv6: An acronym to shake the networked world

It supports Quality of Service (QoS) and thus increasingly important real time communication for multimedia. QoS also goes with ToS," added Martens. That means IPv6 packets for transport over IPv4 routes must be packed separately.

Ovum View: BT in pole position for wireless LAN

Consequently, a WLAN service operating in the public ISM bands - particularly at 2.4GHz while 5GHz is a 'cleaner' band - will not be able to guarantee a specific quality of service (QoS). WLAN has limitations which must be flagged to avoid over...

Managing convergence - the key points every company should know about

A managed service contract should come with an SLA that encompasses a minimum QoS guarantee. It is possible to avoid some of these problems by using strict policy management and most current routers come with quality of service (QoS) features that...

Wireless: The new hotspot for VoIP

To overcome this, a network needs to have 'Quality of Service' (QoS), a technology which guarantees bandwidth to time sensitive applications like voice and tells others to wait their turn. There are various standards initiatives on their way which...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Fat cat telcos are killing the net

Yes, it all works to some degree some of the time but continually increasing the number of VoIP and videoconference calls, radio and TV broadcasts just creates congestion, increased latencies and ultimately one meltdown after another.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
