In this paper we develop a novel method of controlling the demand in a multi-class, QoS-enabled network, using pricing and resource allocation for income maximisation. We first present a solution to the problem of calculating the optimal prices and QoS for a single link using a limiting regime approximation, which reduces the associated computational burden. A heuristic algorithm is then propos...
