In this paper, we propose a novel approach to inter-provider service class mapping in third party (3P) negotiation model. The foundation for this mapping is laid on integer programming model enabling service class selection in domains on the end-to-end path so that performance requirements in terms of quality of service (QoS) parameters are fulfilled. This selection is based on two constraints, referring to performance fulfillment and minimal interconnection costs. Proposed approach is suitable for class mapping in inter-provider scenarios when service negotiation is deployed over 3P agent.
