— We propose a rank-based peer-selection mechanism for peer-to-peer media streaming systems. The mechanism provides incentives for cooperation through service differentiation. Co...
— Equitable bandwidth allocation is essential when QoS requirements and purchasing power vary among users. To this end, we present a mechanism for bandwidth allocation based on d...
— We propose an algorithm for design and on the fly modification of the schedule of a wireless ad hoc network for provision of fair service guarantees under topological changes...
— Measurement-based performance evaluation of network traffic is becoming very important, especially for networks trying to provide differentiated levels of service quality to th...

— Quality of Service (QoS) is an area with high academic curiosity. Our long-term goal is to develop a unified mathematical model. This paper is a first step towards this ambit...
— Traditional SLAs, defined by average delay or packet loss, often camouflage the instantaneous performance perceived by end-users. We define a set of metrics for service avai...
