Abstract: The goal of admission control is to support the Quality
of Service demands of real-time applications via resource reservation
in IP networks. In this paper we introduce a novel Dynamic
Admission Control (DAC) mechanism for IP networks. The DAC
dynamically allocates network resources using the previous network
pattern for each path and uses the dynamic admission algorithm to
improve bandwidth utilization using bandwidth brokers. We evaluate
the performance of the proposed mechanism through trace-driven
simulation experiments in view point of blocking probability,
throughput and normalized utilization.
Abstract: Wireless channels are characterized by more serious
bursty and location-dependent errors. Many packet scheduling
algorithms have been proposed for wireless networks to guarantee
fairness and delay bounds. However, most existing schemes do not
consider the difference of traffic natures among packet flows. This
will cause the delay-weight coupling problem. In particular, serious
queuing delays may be incurred for real-time flows. In this paper, it
is proposed a scheduling algorithm that takes traffic types of flows
into consideration when scheduling packets and also it is provided
scheduling flexibility by trading off video quality to meet the
playback deadline.
