A Generic Quality of Service Management Model for Network-aware Applications
Pattarasinee Bhattarakosol, Wijak Srisujjalertwaja · 2006
A network-aware application is an application that can adapt itself to the changing network environments. According to the quality of service (QoS) concept, QoS management is executed to deliver service license agreement (SLA) between client and server. By merging of these two concepts, this paper proposes a generic QoS management model as a framework of a wireless Internet system for network-aware applications. An end-to-end QoS management functions on server-level and client-level are provided to maximize overall user's satisfaction and individual user's satisfaction, respectively. A QoS management factor, end-to-end transmission delay, is experimented and analyzed in this case study at application-level to see its implication to the QoS management functions.
