QOS-Ticket: A New Resource-Management Mechanism for Dynamic QOS Control of Multimedia Kiyokuni KAWACHIYA

چکیده
In an interactive multimedia environment that handles multiple sessions dynamically, a mechanism for controlling the QOS among sessions is very important. It is, however, di cult to achieve such QOS control without any system support. A new resourcemanagement mechanism and QOS-control architecture for multimedia applications are needed. This paper rst discusses features required for such architecture, and then proposes a new QOS-control architecture based on \QOS-Ticket." In this QOS-Ticket model, resource management and QOS control are achieved through the cooperation of an operating system, a QOS Manager, and individual continuous-media sessions. The QOS-Ticket for each session, which represents that session's resource reservation, mediates these activities. A prototype of the QOS-Ticket model has been implemented on Real-Time Mach, using the system's processor capacity reservation mechanism. An experiment with this prototype is described, to show the effectiveness of the QOS-Ticket model.

Dynamic QoS Control Based on the QoS-Ticket Model
The most notable characteristic of continuous-media data is the existence of timing constraints. To handle such data appropriately, some system support for resource management and QOS control is indispensable. For this reason, we are proposing a “QOS-Ticket” model, which combines resource reservation and adaptation. The QOSTicket model has been implemented on RT-Mach. In this prototype, a new t...
متن کاملA 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...
متن کاملQ-Thread: A New Execution Model for Dynamic QOS Control of Continuous-Media Processing
One characteristic of continuous media is that they should be processed both continuously and periodically. Although \periodic execution models" are suitable for such processing, most existing periodic models do not take account of resource reservation and adaptation (QOS control) in themselves, and such resource management must be performed through some external mechanism. In this paper, we pr...
