Mobile operators are today facing the daunting challenge of providing cheap and valuable services to ever more demanding customers. As a matter of fact, mobile standards have not yet really addressed this expectation of open, cheap and flexible web oriented internet access. As an alternative, we introduced an IP-centric QoS model mainly inspired by IP policies commonly found in fixed networks. In...
Network operators want to deliver multiple services to the end customers. This leads to the need of efficient transport of data using optical network technologies. OBS is a promising technology for metro networks, where the operator can locate their servers to provide services such as video, backup or PC virtualization. These services are competing for shared network bandwidth when running in parallel...
This paper explores the attributes, layering models and objective functions in cross layer designs for mobile ad hoc wireless networks by taking all the statistical characteristics and constraints from the physical (PHY) layer, media access control (MAC) layer and network (NET) layer into consideration. This paper reviews the entire network optimization across all the PHY/MAC/NET layers. At the PHY...
An enhanced flow-aware Internet is arguably a more effective means of ensuring adequate performance than implementing the complex standardized QoS architectures. This flow-aware network would provide flow-level performance guarantees for real time and data applications by implementing per-flow fair queueing and by limiting the impact of overload through flow level admission control. The paper discusses...
