....proposed there could be adopted for PMP. Yet another question is to decide how frequently to vary the capacities and prices of different channels in PMP. Would PMP survive in a competitive market There is an analysis of a greatly simplified version of PMP by Gibbens, Mason, and Steinberg [18] which shows that in their model, PMP would be optimal for a monopolist, but a carrier offering PMP would lose to one offering undifferentiated service. However, this issue is not settled, since competition in information goods in general is hard to model, and most analyses predict destructive ....

Overview of Internet QoS and Web Server QoS - Vasiliou (2000)   (1 citation)  (Correct)

....[33] PMP can be set up to charge on a packet by packet basis or on a flat rate basis (e.g. the user would pay some amount for the right to send y packets every x seconds on some channel) Considering the fact that networking is already complex, striving for maximum simplicity may be the best bet. [24] offers that in a monopolistic environment (i.e. no one else offering undifferentiated services) PMP is optimal. 3.4.2 Fat Dumb Pipe Model The obvious solution to congestion is to over provision the network with surplus bandwidth capacity in anticipation of high demand periods. If there is no ....

....all applications. This suggests that PMP, a best effort system without guarantees, but with several channels of different congestion levels, might satisfy most needs. Would PMP survive in a competitive market There is an analysis of a simplified version of PMP by Gibbens, Mason, and Steinberg [6] which shows that in their model, PMP would be optimal for a monopolist, but a carrier offering PMP would lose to one offering undifferentiated service. However, whether this analysis poses serious problems for PMP is not settled, since competition in information goods in general is hard to model, ....

....should influence developers to incorporate end to end congestion control in their applications, and thus lead to a substantial improvement in the efficiency of network operation. The approach of this paper has not explicitly considered the market structure within which the network operates. See [10] for an analysis of Odlyzko s [22] Paris Metro Pricing proposal within an economic model of competition. The model of [17] allows routing choices by users, and this provides some insight into how a geographically structured competitive environment might operate. An oft expressed concern ....
