At the extremes of the complexity-performance plane, there are two exemplary QoS management architectures: Integrated Services (IntServ) and Differentiated Services (DiffServ). IntServ performs ideally but is not scalable. DiffServ is simple enough to be adopted in today' core networks, but without any performance guarantee. Many compromise solutions have been proposed. These schemes, called quasi-stateful IntServ or stateful DiffServ, however, have not attracted much attention due to their inherently compromising natures. Two disruptive flow-based architectures have been recently introduced: the flow-aware network (FAN) and the flow-state-aware network (FSA). FAN's control is implicit without any signaling. FSA's control is even more sophisticated than that of IntServ. In this paper, we survey established QoS architectures, review disruptive architectures, discuss their rationales, and points out their disadvantages. A new QoS management architecture, flow-aggregate-based services (FAbS), is then proposed. The FAbS architecture has two novel building blocks: inter-domain flow aggregation and endpoint implicit admission control.

User's qualities of services (QoS) are the basic requirements involved in distributed multimedia systems. Considering ATM network, ATM adapter cannot control the end-to-end connection satisfying the user's QoS. This paper describes the new concept of a QoS prediction management system in the distributed network and the configuration of it's QoS prediction management architecture and also discusses it's algorithm.

In this paper, we design and implement a QoS control function in the SIP-based VoIP system. As a network infrastructure for VoIP service, we select the Intserv over Diffserv architecture where the network resources are managed by a call admission control mechanism. The SIP protocol extended to support QoS signaling procedure is modulized to operate independently with the infrastructure. The performance of the QoS-enabled VoIP system is verified by experiments.

Generally, network QoS is determined by timeliness, bandwidth, and reliability, As IT technologies are growing day by day, the bandwidth and reliability factors are expected to be able to satisfy user's requirements. The timeliness factor, however, has not fully met user's requirements yet. In this paper, we propose a packet forwarding scheme named POSIA (Packet forwarding Scheme based on Interworking Architecture) that can provide quite a good QoS (quality of service) by minimizing processing time which is the major part of the timeliness factor. Based on path and resource reservation mechanism, the proposed POSIA makes routers on the packet forwarding path synchronize with each other and then forward packets, The POSIA has been verified to outperform the existing MPLS packet forwarding scheme through computer simulations using OPNET.

A lot of talks on the Quality of services (QoS) so far were limited only either for the network itself or for the end system, But, recently it is becoming more important to have the seamless end-to-end QoS support to meet the networked multimedia service requirements This paper proposes the QoS based resource management architecture which supports the large scale distributed systems under heterogeneous environment. The architecture introduces a couple of key concepts such as abstractions and algorithms. Abstractions capture the three perspectivest found in all systems: application, resource, and system, on the ofter hand algorithms manage system resources based on information in the three abstractions. We also explain the on-line resource management flow as well as the benefit function which specifies the level of benefit accrued to the application user as a function of the level of service provided by the system. At the end of the paper, the QoS based resource management applied to the tele-seminar application is described to show its practical utilization.

서비스품질(QoS) 보장은 지속적인 망자원을 필요로 하는 멀티미디어 응용을 지원하는데 있어 필수적인 사항이다. 무선 환경에서도 멀티미디어의 응용들이 많이 수용될 것으로 전망됨에 따라 무선 환경에서의 QoS 지원에 대한 중요성이 증가되고 있으나, QoS 지원방안이 개별적인 망단위로 연구되는 경우가 많다. 따라서 , 이종 망들이 혼재하는 환경에서, End-to-End QoS를 보장하기 위한 QoS 연동에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11 WLAN과 IP 망간의 QoS 연동을 지원하기 위해 상이한 QoS 클래스 및 파라미터들 간의 맵핑 방안을 제시하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 End-to-End QoS가 지원됨을 입증한다.

본 논문에서는 클러스터에 기반한 주문형 비디오 (VOD: Video On Demand) 시스템에서의 QoS (Quality of Service) 아키텍처를 제안한다. 제안하는 QoS 아키텍처는 IP 네트웍상에서 사용자에게 다양한 서비스 질의 선택과, 선택한 질의 보장을 제공하며, 클러스트 시스템의 자원관리를 통해 서버의 효율을 극대화 시킨다. 클러스터 VOD 시스템의 QoS 아키텍처는 사용자 요구의 협상을 위한 Weighted Price 함수와 요구분배 기법인 Max-min 함수를 이용하여 사용자에게 제공하는 QoS의 수준을 높여주고, 저장 서버들간의 부하균등을 통해 효율성을 높인다. QoS 아키텍처 내의 핵심 모듈인 QoS Mapper와 QoS Manager의 성능을 확인 하는 실험을 통하여 사용자에게 서비스되는 QoS 수준이 증가하였음을 확인할 수가 있었고, 저장서버들간의 부하를 효과적으로 분산시켜 VOD 시스템의 동시 사용자수를 증가 시키고, 안정적인 서비스를 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Rapidly increasing Internet traffic demands require IP protocol based on high quality networking technology. Accordingy, our Internet has evolved from best-effort service toward differentiated service framework so as to implement QoS as prerequisite to a series of new applications. In addition, it is forecasted that existing transport network will be reorganized into DWDM-based optical Internet sooner or later under the influence of Internet demands for higher bandwidth based on QoS. This study shows a way to an effective implementation in some aspects: QoS implementation on DWDM-based optical Internet network, control protocol, backbone network architecture and switching technology for the Next Generation Internet (NGI).

멀티 에이전트 시스템은 다수의 에이전트들이 서로 협력하여 특정 목적을 달성하는 것을 목표로 한다. 이러한 시스템에서는 지능적인 에이전트들 사이에 효율적이고 안정적인 상호작용을 위한 에이전트 플랫폼이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 각 에이전트의 네트워크 상태를 실시간으로 감지하여 통신에 있어서 모든 에이전트에 동일한 QoS를 보장하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 QoS 보장 방법은 동적인 가중치 변환 방법을 통해 이동하는 에이전트에도 늘 동일한 QoS를 보장해 줄 수 있다.

From both techlical and economic viewpoints, DiffServ IP QoS architecture is accepted as a more practical solution because of the complexity Problem of the other IntServ architecture. In this paper, we propose several models to support DiffServ QoS in DSL broadband access networks and discuss about migration path from current best-effort DSL networks to DiffServ-enabled ones. Since DSL networks are recently and widely deployed in the world amount ot new investment, compatibility with existing QoS-unaware DSL systems, and compatibility with existing charging systems as well as effective support of various QoS services must be carefully considered when we design DiffServ QoS support models in DSL networks. The DiffServ models proposed in this paper are divided into static DiffServ models and dynamic DiffServ models which are near-term solutions and long-term solutions repecitively. The static DiffServ models include Flat DiffServ which suworts per-subscriber DiffServ QoS and Structured DiffServ which supports per-subscriber and per-service DiffServ QoS. And the dynamic DiffServ models include Direct DiffServ for P2P(Peer to Peer) applications and Indirect DiffServ for ASP(Application Service Provider) applications.
