“…However, the access networks outside the CN may have their own QoS models and semantics, which cannot be interpreted in other networks along the session path [14]. For example, there exist four different QoS classes for UMTS (i.e.…”

“…This non-standardization throughout different network domains makes it more difficult to establish the desired end-to-end QoS reservations and to come up with fair charging agreements on communication paths whose networks are owned by multiple parties. Maniatis et al [14] have tried to tackle t he QoS model translation problem across different networks by applying an intelligent mapping algorithm during end-to-end QoS negotiation such that the best suiting QoS class is selected in each network along the session path. Similarly, the operator can employ AC by using the Policy Decision Function (PDF) at the access network border and making the access network physical bearer enforce a Service Based Local Policy (SBLP), if the bearer actually listens to the commands from the IMS signaling and control layer.…”

“…21 As described by Maniatis et. al, 22 no standard exists for specifying QoS requirements; however, such standards would simplify the processing required by the middleware layer. The bandwidth broker periodically distributes the current price schedule and available QoS levels to the middleware layer of each user.…”

Many applications require network performance bounds, or Quality of Service (QoS), for their proper operation. This is achieved through the appropriate allocation of network resources; however, providing end-to-end QoS is becoming more complex, due to the increasing heterogeneity of networks. For example, end-to-end QoS can be provided through the concatenation of services across multiple networks (domains), but each domain may employ different network technologies as well as different QoS methodologies. As a result, management strategies are needed to provide QoS across multiple domains in a scalable and economically feasible manner. This paper describes a microeconomic-based middleware architecture that allows the specification and acquisition of QoS and resource policies. The architecture consists of users, bandwidth brokers, and network domains. Executing applications, users require network QoS obtained via middleware from a bandwidth broker. Bandwidth brokers then interact with one another to provide end-to-end QoS connections across multiple domains. This is done in a BGP manner which recursively provides end-to-end services in a scalable fashion. Using this framework, this paper describes management strategies to optimally provision and allocate end-to-end connections. The methods maintain a low blocking probability, and maximize utility and profit, which are increasingly important as network connectivity evolves as an industry.

“…End-to-end QoS provision requires to investigate many different mechanisms, such as QoS signaling, QoS modeling, QoS mapping, QoS specification, etc, which are analyzed in many papers, such as [1][2][3][4], across heterogeneous scenarios. Supporting QoS of multimedia services in such scenarios requires a QoS architecture able not only of performing cited end-toend QoS functions, but also of reacting to unpredictable changes occurring during the session.…”

In this paper the concept of ''Situation&Location'' based platforms for QoS management in next-generation heterogeneous telecommunication scenarios is presented. The exploitation of a Multi-Agent System is investigated with the aim of providing a user with seamless and optimized network access to the desired service based on its current situation and location. Key feature of the proposed system is the presence of a middleware platform exploiting user profile-, resource-, and situation-management agents whose ontology is specified in XML language. The proposed platform is intended as a sample architecture for QoS control and adaptation. It tries to contribute to the research activities that several forums, interest groups, and standardization bodies are conducting in the view of 4G system full deployment.
