Abstract :
In this article, we consider how to allocate network resource among the service in different classes based on Nash equilibrium model and Stackelberg model. After getting the optimal prices of each service classes, which make both the service providers and the users get their maximum revenue, we discuss the influence of the capacity of network resource and the buying willingness of users on the price and the user´s choice of different services.
