A Model for Dynamic QoS Negotiation applied to an MPEG4 Application
نویسنده
چکیده
The traffic generated by multimedia applications presents a great amount of burstiness, which can hardly be described by a static set of traffic parameters. The dynamic and efficient usage of the resources is one of the fundamental aspects of multimedia networks: the traffic specification should first reflect the real traffic demand, but optimise, at the same time, the resources requested. This chapter presents: a model for dynamically renegotiating the traffic specification (RVBR), how this can be integrated with the traffic reservation mechanism RSVP, and an example of application able to accommodate its traffic to managing QoS dynamically. The remaining of this chapter is focused on the technique used to implement RVBR) taking into account problems deriving from delay during the renegotiation phase and on the performance of the application with MPEG4 traffic.

A Negotiation-Based Resource Management Framework for Dynamic QOS Control Kiyokuni KAWACHIYA
To change the quality of service (QOS) of a continuous-media processing dynamically according to the system environment, a new resource management model is needed that supports resource negotiation between the application and the system by combining resource reservation and adaptation. Realization of such a model will require the solution of several problems, such as how to specify requests for...

QoS-aware distributed applications such as certain Multimedia and Ubiquitous Computing applications can benefit greatly from the provision of QoS guarantees from the underlying system and middleware infrastructure. They must avoid execution glitches that affect the user’s perception of the application output. Most research in QoS support for distributed systems focuses on three aspects of QoS m...

ÐReal-time middleware services must guarantee predictable performance under specified load and failure conditions, and ensure graceful degradation when these conditions are violated. Guaranteed predictable performance typically entails reservation of resources and use of admission control. Graceful degradation, on the other hand, requires dynamic reallocation of resources to maximize the applic...

Service level agreement (SLA) is a powerful tool to formalize the negotiation and agreement between the service provider and service seeker with the scope of service quality characteristics, compensations and tariffs. The service quality description is the main part of a SLA which can be characterized by the use of suitable and feasible quality of service (QoS) parameters. Determining suitable ...

We propose to develop a portable middleware service to manage dynamic allocation and scheduling of computing resources in embedded distributed real-time systems transparently on behalf of the application programmer. The service ensures satisfaction of timing constraints subject to given load and failure assumptions in accordance with application Quality of Service (QoS) requirements while achie...
