Efficient Resource Allocation for Policy-Based Wireless/Wireline Interworking

Abstract

This paper proposes efficient resource allocation techniques for a policy-based wireless/wireline interworking architecture, where quality of service (QoS) provisioning and resource allocation is driven by the service level agreement (SLA). For end-to-end

Additional switching nodes: Not a panacea for congested wireless networks

“…Next generation networks will see control signals primarily based on Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Diameter protocols carried over an IP network. Though such networks may not use dedicated signaling links per se, resources must still be allocated based Service Level Agreements and network Policies [3]. The technique described in this paper will address resource allocation (bandwidth, buffer sizes etc.)…”

Open Access to Control on Quality of Service in Convergent Networks

“…Policy-based service provisioning system is proposed in (Selvakumar, Xavier, & Balamurugan, 2008) in order to provide different classes of services. An efficient resource allocation technique for a policy-based wireless/wireline interworking architecture is suggested in (Cheng, Song, Zhuang, Leon-Garcia, & Hu, 2006), where QoS provisioning and resource allocation is driven by the service level agreement. Marti, Caixue, Brandt, Velasco, and Fuertes (2004) present an optimal resource allocation policy that maximizes control performance within the available resources and provide experimental results showing that the optimal policy significantly increases control performance compared to traditional control system implementations, and incurs negligible overhead.…”
