Resource Allocation in Multi-Service Networks via Pricing: Statistical Multiplexing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate the multiplexing of heterogeneous applications and the pricing of transmission services on an ATM network. Pricing is of interest for network management to promote efficient utilization of resources. A framework is presented in which users select from a menu of services, are peak-rate policed, and are charged according to their usage and connection time. We illustrate the considerable improvement in network utilization possible compared to a traditional reservation-based approach. q 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

A heuristic method for consumable resource allocation in multi-class dynamic PERT networks
This investigation presents a heuristic method for consumable resource allocation problem in multi-class dynamic Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) networks, where new projects from different classes (types) arrive to system according to independent Poisson processes with different arrival rates. Each activity of any project is operated at a devoted service station located in a n...
متن کاملConstrained consumable resource allocation in alternative stochastic networks via multi-objective decision making
Many real projects complete through the realization of one and only one path of various possible network paths. Here, these networks are called alternative stochastic networks (ASNs). It is supposed that the nodes of considered network are probabilistic with exclusive-or receiver and exclusive-or emitter. First, an analytical approach is proposed to simplify the structure of t...
متن کاملA Pricing Model for Networks with Priorities*
In this paper, a centralized resource allocation model based on priority schemes is first proposed for best-effort networks in which traffic from all priorities are fully multiplexed. Then a priority pricing scheme is used to distribute the resource allocation process. Users and the network exchange their characterizations on QoS, resource demand and prices via contract negotiation. The contrac...
متن کاملResource Management in Wide-Area ATM Networks using Effective Bandwidths
This paper is principally concerned with resource allocation for connections tolerating statistical quality of service (QoS) guarantees in a public wide-area ATM network. Our aim is to sketch a framework, based on eeective bandwidths, for call admission schemes that are sensitive to individual QoS requirements and account for statistical multiplexing. We begin by describing recent results appro...
متن کاملE ects of Pricing in Multiple - Service Networks withResource Allocation
The recent deployment of broadband networks that accommodate applications with diverse quality of service requirements presents new challenges to the pricing of network services. Pricing can and should be used to innuence customers to choose services that t their application needs, maximizing the statistical multiplexing capability of the network. This paper presents a framework for studying th...
