QOS DEFINED: RESEARCH

•QoS is a mature, well-researched topic•Packet Classification•Shaping and Policing•Buffer acceptance and queue management•Scheduling algorithms•However, QoS seems to fade as a research topic•The research community is more interested in•Network measurements and analysis•TCP and TCP-friendly protocol performanceover multi-gigabit pipes, multi-hop wireless•P2P, Routing, Overlays•Security, Gaming

QOS DEFINED: DEPLOYMENT

•Several deployment attempts did not succeed inmaking QoS ubiquitous•Integrated Services (early 90s)•Differentiated Services (mid 90s), QBone•ATM, MPLS, wireless ATM vs. IEEE 802.11, …•In addition, overprovisioning seems to be more wide-spread, more attractive than deploying QoS•Is that a bad thing?•Is overprovisioning the solution?•Is it enough? Why not?
