Implementation of QoS onto virtual bus network
Quality of Service (QoS) is a key issue in a multimedia environment because multimedia applications are sensitive to delay. The virtual bus architecture is a hierarchical access network structure that has been proposed to simplify network signaling. The network employs an interconnection of hierarchical database to support advanced routing of the signaling and traffic load. Therefore, the requirements and management of quality of service is important in the virtual bus network particularly to support multimedia applications. QoS and traffic parameters are specified for each class type and the OMNeT model has been described
Optimizing Service Differentiation Scheme with Sized-based Queue Management in DiffServ Networks
In this paper we introduced Modified Sized-based Queue Management as a
dropping scheme that aims to fairly prioritize and allocate more service to
VoIP traffic over bulk data like FTP as the former one usually has small packet
size with less impact to the network congestion. In the same time, we want to
guarantee that this prioritization is fair enough for both traffic types. On
the other hand we study the total link delay over the congestive link with the
attempt to alleviate this congestion as much as possible at the by function of
early congestion notification. Our M-SQM scheme has been evaluated with NS2
experiments to measure the packets received from both and total link-delay for
different traffic. The performance evaluation results of M-SQM have been
validated and graphically compared with the performance of other three legacy
AQMs (RED, RIO, and PI). It is depicted that our M-SQM outperformed these AQMs
in providing QoS level of service differentiation.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures, 1 table, Submitted to Journal of

Towards scalable end-to-end QoS provision for VoIP applications
The growth of the Internet and the development of its new applications have increased the demand for providing a certain level of resource assurance and service support. The concept of ensuring quality of service (QoS) has been introduced in order to provide the support and assurance for these services. Different QoS mechanisms, such as integrated services (IntServ) and differentiated services (DiffServ), have been developed and introduced to provide different levels of QoS provision. However, IntServ can suffer from scalability issues that make it infeasible for large-scale network implementations. On the other hand, the aggregated-based per-flow technique of DiffServ does not provide such an end-to-end QoS guarantee. Recently, the IETF have proposed a new QoS architecture that implements IntServ over DiffServ in order to provide an end-to-end QoS for scalable networks. Hence, it became possible to provide and support a certain level of QoS for some delay sensitive and bandwidth-demanding applications such as voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). With regard to VoIP applications, delay, jitter and packet loss are crucial issues that have to be taken into consideration for any VoIP system design and such parameters need a distinct level of QoS support
Quality-of-service management in IP networks
Quality of Service (QoS) in Internet Protocol (IF) Networks has been the subject of
active research over the past two decades. Integrated Services (IntServ) and
Differentiated Services (DiffServ) QoS architectures have emerged as proposed
standards for resource allocation in IF Networks. These two QoS architectures
support the need for multiple traffic queuing systems to allow for resource
partitioning for heterogeneous applications making use of the networks. There have
been a number of specifications or proposals for the number of traffic queuing
classes (Class of Service (CoS)) that will support integrated services in IF Networks,
but none has provided verification in the form of analytical or empirical investigation
to prove that its specification or proposal will be optimum.
Despite the existence of the two standard QoS architectures and the large volume of
research work that has been carried out on IF QoS, its deployment still remains
elusive in the Internet. This is not unconnected with the complexities associated with
some aspects of the standard QoS architectures. [Continues.

Admission control in Flow-Aware Networking (FAN) architectures under GridFTP traffic
This is the author’s version of a work that was accepted for publication in Optical Switching and Networking. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting, and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in this document. Changes may have been made to this work since it was submitted for publication. A definitive version was subsequently published in Optical Switching and Networking, 6, 9 (2009) DOI: 10.1016/j.osn.2008.05.003Selected papers from First International Symposium on Advanced Networks and Telecommunication Systems, ANTS 2007Computing and networking resources virtualization is the main objective of Grid services. Such a concept is already used in the context of Web-services on the Internet. In the next few years, a large number of applications belonging to various domains (biotechnology, banking, finance, car and aircraft manufacturing, nuclear energy etc.) will also benefit from Grid services. Admission control is a key functionality for Quality of Service (QoS) provision in IP networks, and more specifically for Grid services provision. Service differentiation (DS) is a widely deployed technique on the Internet. It operates at the packet level on a best-effort mode. Flow-Aware Networking (FAN) that operates at the scale of the IP flows relies on implicit flow differentiation through priority fair queuing (PFQ). It may be seen as an alternative to DS. A Grid session may be seen as a succession of parallel TCP/IP flows characterized by data transfers with much larger volume than usual TCP/IP flows. In this paper, we propose an extension of FAN for the Grid environment called Grid over FAN (GoFAN). We compare, by means of computer simulations, the efficiency of Grid over DS (GoDS) and GoFAN. Two variants of GoFAN architectures based on different fair queuing algorithms are considered. As a first step, we provide two short surveys on QoS for Grid environment and on QoS in IP networks respectively
