Abstract

The Internet is widely known for lacking any kind of mechanism for the provisioning of quality of service guarantees. An overlay resource control management layer on top of a differentiated services core network is introduced for managing and adjusting the resources among network elements. This layer realises an algorithm which provides a dynamic approach for resource distribution. Our experimental results show that this algorithm can allocate network resources according to the traffic load and provide an adaptive and efficient way for re-distributing the resources among network elements
