We introduce a charging and accounting (CA) architecture for IP multicast services with QoS guarantees over ATM for QoS-sensitive fair charging. The architecture is based on an extension of the Multicast Integration Server (MIS, [SaCS97]) that efficiently provides IP multicast over ATM, supporting Internet Integrated Services (IS) with receiver heterogeneity and shortcut management. We define r...

We develop a theoretical basis for integration and segregation of multiple outcomes with underlying S-shaped value functions. Our theoretical findings suggest that Thaler’ principles of mental accounting work as postulated when we deal with events having only positive outcomes (gains) or only negative ones (losses). In the case of ‘mixed’ events with positive and negative outcomes, determining ...
