We propose a novel pricing incentive mechanism supporting load balancing and allocating network resource efficiently for QoS-enabled networks. In this paper, we integrate the proposed pricing with QoS routing and present a novel pricing incentive mechanism meeting the QoS requirements of application. This mechanism provides a equitable pricing incentive for applications to according to their service...
In recent years, the notion of service overlay networks has been proposed as a promising solution for providing end-to-end QoS without changing the current Internet architecture. A major issue in deploying service overlay networks is determining how to allocate resources (such as link bandwidth) on a substrate network to overlay networks, while satisfying the end-to-end QoS requirements of applications...
We study mechanism designs for resource management in service overlay, where services are provided by strategic agents. Usually, resources in distributed systems are limited. However, the current mechanism design does not take the capacity of agents into consideration. Traditionally, the Vickrey- Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism has been the only method to design protocols so that each strategic agent...
In this paper, we introduce a pricing model that ensures efficient resource allocation that provides guaranteed quality of service while maximizing profit in multiservice networks. Specifically, a dynamic allocation policy is examined that relies on online measurements while each service class operates under a probabilistic bound delay constraint. We present a rigorous analysis of the properties of...
