As wireless technologies revolutionize, wireless users can access the ubiquitous networks by multi-mode devices in a multi-wireless-carrier environment. Network selection concept allows person connectivity to applications using the devices and access technologies that best suit user needs. However, the network selection should consider how the bandwidth consumed by the user applications can be well managed in backbone. In this study, we propose a heuristic scheme to accelerate requests from wireless users in a multi-wireless-carrier environment by an efficient backbone management. By fully utilizing the unused network resources, the proposed scheme can enhance the quality of experience from heterogeneous wireless accesses. Our simulation results show that our scheme can grant more bandwidth to the request to shorten the complete time and increase user satisfaction.
