We investigate the problem of efficient resource control for elastic traffic in IEEE 802.11e’s Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) mechanism. Our approach considers an ...
This paper presents a new market-based pricing scheme which aims to improve the link load balance in Grid networks. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves a bett...
Client request rates for Internet services tend to be bursty and thus it is important to maintain efficient resource utilization under a wide range of load conditions. Network ser...
The Differentiated Services architecture targets at providing scalable network Quality of Service by means of aggregate scheduling. However, the defined framework itself only give...
