OPNET Implementation of Endpoint Admission Control Algorithms
Kun-Ru Wu, Yan Ma, Ljiljana Trajković · 2003
The history of telephone networks indicates a trend of employing sophisticated switches and dumb hosts. Hence, it is often expensive and difficult to replace switches and add new applications. In contrast, Internet employs simple routers and sophisticated applications in hosts. New applications can be added without requiring infrastructural changes. In order to keep routers simple, there is a growing need for new mechanisms employing end-hosts that provide admission control.
