Traffic Handling in AQUILA QoS IP Network

The paper describes the traffic handling mechanisms implemented in the AQUILA pilot QoS IP network [10]. The AQUILA project enhances the DiffServ architecture concept [1,2,3] by adding new functionality for admission control and resource management as well as by defining new set of network services. Each network service is optimised for specific type of traffic (e.g. nonreactive and reactive) and has its own traffic handling mechanisms. Exemplary measurement results verifying the effectiveness of AQUILA approach for providing QoS are also included.
