This document describes service classes configured with Diffserv and recommends how they can be used and how to construct them using Differentiated Services Code Points (DSCPs), traffic conditioners, Per-Hop Behaviors (PHBs), and Active Queue Management (AQM) mechanisms. There is no intrinsic requirement that particular DSCPs, traffic conditioners, PHBs, and AQM be used for a certain service cl...

This paper presents a mechanism for active resource management (ARM) in a differentiated services environment. While the differentiated services architecture and the bandwidth broker agent provide a mechanism for QoS management through resource reservation, this mechanism is based on a static provisioning of resources. As bandwidth requirement are typically dynamic, such a static reservation ap...

New technologies such as IEEE 802.16 (Wi-MAX) [2] and IEEE 802.11e (Wi-Fi with QoS) [1] enable differentiated services. In this study we explore the potential for increasing the revenue of Internet service providers with differentiated services. For concreteness, we focus on two generic services that we call “voice” and “data.” However, the analysis applies to services that have different requi...

The phenomenal growths of group communications and QoS-aware applications over the Internet have respectively accelerated the development of two key technologies, namely, multicasting and Differentiated Services (DiffServ). Although both are complementary technologies, the integration of the two technologies is a nontrivial task due to architectural conflicts between multicasting and DiffServ. ...

In recent years, the necessity of quality guaranteed services is increasing in the Internet. Differentiated services, which have multiple classes using priority control, are being introduced. To offer differentiated services, we should know what quality is needed and what price is appropriate. In this paper, the userbased optimum pricing method is proved to maximize the revenue of ISP by using ...

In this paper; we propose and analyze a methodology for providing absolute digerentiated services with statistical pe formance guarantees for real-time applications in networks that use static-priority schedulers. We extend previous work on delay analysis and develop a method that can be used to derive statistical delay guarantees in a flowunaware fashion. While traditional delay analysis metho...

Differentiated Services (Diffserv) which was proposed by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), is a scalable and robust model for providing the end-to-end QoS. In the Diffserv networks, metering mechanisms are used to measure traffic stream. The single rate Three Color Meter (srTCM) [1],which was proposed by IETF,‏ meters an IP packet stream and marks its packets either green, yellow, or red....
