چکیده

Several congestion pricing proposals have been made in the last decade. Usually, however, those proposals studied optimal strategies and did not focus on implementation issues. Our main contribution in this paper is to address implementation issues for congestion-sensitive pricing over a single domain of the differentiated-services (diff-serv) architecture of the Internet. We propose a new congestion-sensitive pricing framework Distributed Dynamic Capacity Contracting (Distributed-DCC), which is able to provide a range of fairness (e.g. max-min, proportional) in rate allocation by using pricing as a tool. Within the Distributed-DCC framework, we develop two pricing schemes based on the manner of using pricing to control congestion: Pricing for Congestion Control (PFCC) and Pricing over Congestion Control (POCC). PFCC uses pricing directly for controlling congestion, whilst POCC uses an underlying edge-to-edge congestion control mechanism by overlaying pricing on top of it. Keywords— Network Pricing, Congestion Pricing, Quality-of-Service, Fairness, Congestion Control, Differentiated-Services

Dynamic Overlay Single-Domain Contracting for End-to-End Contract-Switching

The Internet’s simple design resulted in huge success in basic telecommunication services. However, in terms of providing end-to-end QoS services, the Internet’s architecture needs major shifts since it neither allows (i) users to indicate their value choices at sufficient granularity nor (ii) providers to manage risks involved in investment for new innovative QoS technologies and business rela...

Dynamic Capacity Contracting: A Framework for Pricing the Differentiated Services Internet

The exploding growth of the Internet has lead to a general deterioration of service levels experienced by its users. The IP best effort model that is currently in use is inadequate to provide guaranteed service levels. Internet service providers are seeking scalable methods for providing differentiated services to customers who are willing to pay more. This paper proposes a scheme called dynami...

A Comparative Evaluation of Internet Pricing Models: Smart Markets and Dynamic Capacity Contracting

Internet pricing is receiving increased attention in industry and academia. In this paper, we report the results of comparing two Internet pricing models. Using simulation techniques, we evaluate the technical and economic efficiencies of the Smart Market model proposed by MacKie-Mason & Varian (1993) and compare it with Dynamic Capacity Contracting, a pricing scheme that we have developed. Dyn...
