Web services have a potential to enhance B2B e-commerce over the Internet by allowing
companies and organizations to publish their business processes on service directories …

An analytical model is developed for cellular networks with a combined adaptive bandwidth
allocation and traffic-restriction mechanism. Instead of focusing only on the bandwidth …

In many e-commerce systems, preserving Quality of Service (QoS) is crucial to keep a
competitive edge. Poor QoS translates into poor system resource utilisation, customer …

This paper presents an adaptive threshold channel allocation scheme for new and handoff
calls in wireless multimedia network. We divide the channels of each cell into two parts; one …

Mobile systems operate in a resource-scarce environment and thus must adapt to external
conditions; all layers must make cost-based decisions about what mode of operation to use …

This paper provides a study of threshold-based call admission control in CDMA systems. We
formulate a framework, in which the existing algorithms are identified and even original ones …

Obtaining consistent bandwidth with predictable latency from disk-based storage systems
has proven difficult due to the storage system's inability to understand quality of service …

A new class of multimedia applications require new mechanisms to consider various Quality
of Services with respect to resource constraints so that they could support reliable services …

The problem of adaptive QoS provisioning in wireless and mobile networks is studied in this
thesis. A mathematical model is established to analyze the impact of adaptive bandwidth …

In this paper we present a welfar eeconomic (marketbased) resource management model
that is QoS-based, which models the actual price-formation process of an economy. This …
