TLDR
In this article, a traffic control device for a Quality of Service-aware packet-based network comprises detection means (52) for detecting packet flows in a packet stream (46) by preferably repeatedly performing a data packet inspection on the packet stream and sending means (58) for sending the assignment information to a resource control device (44) for causing the resource controller device to allocate the assigned resource.Abstract:
A traffic control device (50) for a Quality of Service-aware packet-based network (10) comprises detection means (52) for detecting packet flows in a packet stream (46) by preferably repeatedly performing a data packet inspection on the packet stream (46), the data packet inspection being neither based on signaling information nor on application awareness, determining means (54) for determining a flow parameter, in particular a flow rate, of at least one of the detected packet flows, assignment means (56) for generating assignment information assigning a resource of the packet-based network (10) to the at least one detected packet flow in dependence of the detected flow parameter, and sending means (58) for sending the assignment information to a resource control device (44) for causing the resource control device (44) to allocate the assigned resource. In such a way, reliable and cost-efficient quality of service management in a packet-based network (10) is facilitated.read more

Methods and apparatus for managing a flow of packets using change and reply signals
John G. Waclawsky,Hamesh Chawla +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, techniques for controlling a flow of packets in a data communications device are described. But the first technique involves transferring packets of a particular packet flow based on an initial policy scheme, and planning a scheme change to change the initial policy to a new policy scheme based on conditions within the data communications devices existing while transferring the packets of the particular flow based in the initial scheme.
