Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRICING-BASED QUALITY OF SERVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001058084
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A data flow system, where a source (100) transmits a reservation packet to an ingress element (102). The ingress element (102) polices incoming message traffic and collects data flow information. Quality of service differentiation is realized by marking data packet of different data flows. The ingress element (102) registers the reservation packet and forwards the request to a core router (106). The core router (106) evaluates the service level required, and available resources. Based on this evaluation the core router (106) will reject, accept, or modify the received message, indicate the price for the requested level of service, and forward the reservation packet. The process is repeated until the reservation packet reaches the destination (110), which sends a feedback message to the source (100) indicating the result of the reservation packet. After establishing a reservation, source 100 transmits periodic control messages and collects information regarding resource availability, and the flow path.
