There is an emergence of Internet applications that have real-time requirements. These applications require IP to support guaranteed capacity, higher priority and lower packet loss rate. To address this, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is developing a set of protocols and standards for Integrated Services on the Internet. Using RSVP and policies to manage the allocation of network resources in order to provide different levels of service is a topic of great interest to service providers. Currently, it is not possible to dynamically reallocate resources during an application's session. This paper discusses how policies in conjunction with new service class can provide a more enhanced network resource allocation by allowing for this dynamic reallocation.

Recently there are increasing needs for Internet and various kinds of contents. These traffics for various contents need more amount of data to provide high-quality information and require various QoS depending on the characteristics of contents. However, current Internet service supports BE (Best Effort) service only, therefore IntServ (Integrated Service) scheme and DiffServ (Differentiated Service) scheme are represented to support QoS in IP layer. Moreover, while wireless Internet is getting popular, MAC(Medium Access Control) is also becoming important. This is due to the fact that wireless access, resource allocation and packet scheduling, which are done in another layers before, are performed in MAC layer in many new wireless systems. This paper describes new scheme that provides QoS taking into account the traffic characteristics over Mobile IPv6 network based on IEEE 802.11e EDCF and evaluates the performance through computer simulation.

As the multimedia application traffic takes more portion in the internet traffic, it is necessary to control the network congestion through the congestion control protocol. In addition, the QoS-enabled networks such as DiffServ become an indispensable technology when running the multimedia applications. However, the previously proposed end-to-end congestion control algorithms take the round trip time to react the network congestion. Thus, as the RTT becomes larger, the reaction against the congestion gets delayed further, while the network congestion gets worse. In addition the performance of end-to-end congestion control algorithm is degraded if the QoS-enabled network runs the congestion control mechanism in the network level without any coordination between them. In this paper, we propose the early rate adaptation protocol for the DiffServ network which effectively linke the congestion control algorithm at the host and the congestion mechanism in the network together. By taking advantage of early congestion notification from the network it is possible to react the network congestion more quickly and effectively.

We analyze the flow aggregate (FA) based network delay guarantee framework, with generalized minimal interleaved regulator (IR) initially suggested by IEEE 802.1 time sensitive network (TSN) task group (TG). The framework has multiple networks with minimal IRs attached at their output ports for suppressing the burst cascades, with FAs within a network for alleviating the scheduling complexity. We analyze the framework with various topology and parameter sets with the conclusion that the FA-based framework with low complexity can yield better performance than the integrated services (IntServ) system with high complexity, especially with large network size and large FA size.

The increasing number of mobile users and the popularity of real-time applications make wired-wireless integrated network extremely attractive. In this case, quality of service (QoS) adaptability is particularly important since some important features of the integrated network call for QoS adaptability, such as mobility, bursty applications and so on. Traditional QoS schemes include integrated service (IntServ) and differentiated service (DiffSev) as well as their variants. However, they are not able to balance well between scalability and QoS granularity. For example, IntServ faces the scalability problem, while DiffServ can only provide coarse granular QoS. In addition, they are also unable to efficiently support QoS adaptability. Therefore, a per-packet differentiated queueing service (DQS) was proposed. DQS was originally proposed to balance between scalability and QoS granularity in wired networks and then extended to wireless networks. This paper mainly discusses how to use DQS to support QoS adaptability in wired-wireless integrated networks. To this end, we propose a scheme to determine dynamic delay bounds, which is the key step to implement DQS to support QoS adaptability. Simulation studies along with some discussions are further conducted to investigate the QoS adaptability of the proposed scheme, especially in terms of its support of QoS adaptability to mobility and to bursty real-time applications.

Most of the existing broadband access networks based on DSL, cable modem, and Ethernet support the best-effort internet access service, and adopt the flat rate pricing mechanism. It is almost impossible to provide the differentiated communication services, in current broadband access networks, for the different users and/or the different application services. Currently, however, the advances in multimedia, communication, and security technologies push the interactive and/or streaming multimedia services and VPN services to be widely deployed over Internet, and they require more QoS-sensitive services than the best-effort service. Though various QoS technologies such as RSVP-based IntServ and DiffSern were already developed and under standardization in Internet world, it is impractical to replace the existing QoS-unaware access networks with the QoS-enabled ones at a time to deploy QoS-sensitive services. In this paper, after analyzing current broadband access network architectures and the status of QoS support, we propose a practical approach to support multimedia QoS in the broadband access networks. The approach will be based on the integration of the differentiated pricing and the DiffServ technology. And it will be a step-wise approach to support backward compatibility with the legacy broadband access networks as much as possible.

복잡하고 거대한 통신망을 효율적으로 구성하고 운용 관리하기 위해 ITU-T에서는 TMN 망관리 국제표준을 정하고 있다. 그러나 TCP/IP 기반의 인터넷 망에서는 TMN보다 간단하게 정의되어 있는 SNMP를 이용해 MIB를 기반으로 망 요소(network element) 제어만을 하고 있다. 인터넷 망에서 멀티미디어 데이터 교환 서비스를 수용하면서, IP 망 설계 초기에 고려하지 않았던 서비스품질(QoS)을 제공하기 위해 IntServ, DiffServ 프로토콜 등을 정의하고 있다. 이렇게 QoS를 제공하기 위한 인터넷 망은 단순한 SNMP 만으로는 관리될 수 없다. 그러나 아직까지 이에 적합한 망관리 모델이 정립되지 못한 상태인 바, 본 논문에서는 정책을 기반(policy-based)으로 하여 QoS 서비스를 위한 자원 할당을 dynamic하게 제공할 수 있도록 하는 QoS 인터넷 망관리 모델을 제안한다. 이 모델은 TMN의 관리계층 구조에 맞도록 구성되어 있다.

Flow aggregation is a scalable method to provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees to a large number of flows economically. A round-robin scheduler is an efficient scheduling algorithm. We investigate flow aggregation using a round-robin scheduler and propose the use of periodic timer interrupts for rate control of the round-robin scheduler. The proposed flow aggregator is a single-stage scheduler compared to Cobb's two-stage flow aggregator consisting of an aggregator and non-aggregating scheduler. It is possible to implement flow aggregation in the existing routers with only a software upgrade. We also present a simulation study showing the delay behaviors of the proposed algorithm.

IP 망에서 서비스 품질을 제공하기 위한 기술로 RSVP 신호 프로토콜을 사용하는 종합 서비스 모델(Integrated Service Model)과 차등화 서비스(Differentiated Service)가 있다. 그러나, RSVP는 플로우별로 상태를 유지하고, 처리하기 때문에 거대한 네트워크에서는 확장성 문제가 고려되어야 한다. 반대로, 차등화 서비스는 클래스별로 처리하기 때문에 확장성 문제를 해결할 수 있지만, 완전한 형태의 서비스 품질을 보장하지 못한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 RSVP의 장점과 차등화 서비스의 장점을 상호 결합하기 위한 통합 모델을 살펴보고, 경계 라우터의 각 모듈과 기능을 정의하였다. 또한, 차등화 서비스 영역에서 자원 예약 메시지를 최우선 서비스로 처리함으로써 동적인 자원 예약 프로토콜의 단점을 보완 하도록 하였다. 경계 라우터는 RSVP 메시지를 처리하는 RSVP 처리 모듈, RSVP의 자원 요청에 대응하는 차등화 서비스 클래스를 결정하는 서비스 매핑 처리 모듈, 마지막으로 패킷 우선순위에 따라 차별화된 서비스를 제공하는 차등화 서비스 처리 모듈로 구성되어 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 자원 예약 메시지의 우선 처리 방법과 경계 라우터의 설계는 향후 IP 네트워크에서 쉽게 적용하고, 확장될 수 있으리라 사료된다.
