What we tried: |
|
QoS and IP – a subject with a great future
behind it |
|
Intserv,diffserv,measurement based admission
control, price based admission control, mpls, traffic engineering, qos
routing, red ecn etc etc etc. |
|
|
|
|
Parekh’s thesis 8 years old |
|
RSVP 9 years old |
|
WFQ/SFQ/and Class of Service have been around
for over a decade |
|
|
|
|
Work in each area is ok, but is in isolation
from the big picture – how can we fix this? |
|
|
|
|
There’s plenty of gold in “them there nets” |
|
Can we leverage some of it for QoS in the
future? |
|
|
|
|
|
Need to know: |
|
Networks (telecom,ip,fr,atm,etc) |
|
Control & Queueing theory |
|
Economics&Law |
|
Human Factors |
|
Computer Systems |
|
Physics… |
|
|
|
|
Need to combine these expertise (c.f.
Communications Systems Research Centers in Columbia, in Cambridge) |
|
Need to be open to adding more disciplines as
needed |
|
Need to recognize non-problems (e.g.
“over-provisioning” is often a reasonable solution). |
