....allocation of network resources to users. We attempt to develop a flexible and general negotiation framework decoupled from specific network service protocols and pricing and resource allocation algorithms. Our work can therefore be regarded as complementary with some of the cited work. In [23], a charging and payment scheme for RSVP based QoS reservations is described. This is closer to our work in its approach than the references cited above. A significant di#erence is the absence of an explicit price quotation mechanism instead, the user accepts or rejects the estimated charge for ....

....for resource negotiation and pricing and billing, and evaluating the performance benefits of congestion sensitive pricing and adaptation through simulations, decoupled from specific network service protocols. Our work can therefore be regarded as complementary to some of the cited work. In [12], a charging and payment scheme for RSVP based QoS reservations is described. A significant difference from our work is the absence of an explicit price quotation mechanism instead, the user accepts or rejects the estimated charge for a reservation request. Also, the scheme is coupled to a ....

....In the basic approach, the user defines the maximal total price she is willing to pay as a sender or a receiver of data, respectively, as well as an upper bound for the maximal number of hops. The charging information can be transmitted as part of a signalling protocol, e.g. the RSVP header [4] [5]. 4.2 Auction Mechanisms The seminal work of [10] deals with the question of how an efficient pricing structure allows to manage congestion, encourage network growth and guide resources to their most valuable use. As the marginal cost for transporting packets over the network is essentially zero ....

....same type of content. In both cases, it is important to actively manage the bandwidth expectations and bandwidth allocation. The communication bandwidth in most applications is a shared resource that the users may have to compete for, additionaly the resource has to be paid for to avoid overuse [14]. The bandwidth resource needs to be managed to ensure that sucient bandwidth is available for an application while at the same time ensuring that excess bandwidth is released to avoid having to pay for the resource that is not needed. Precise management of bandwidth resources is costly, since ....

....in a competitive setting where consumers can extract no bene t from releasing excess resources. Pricing schemes have been suggested as means for prioritizing competition for resources based on 1 money, and for providing the consumers with tangible bene ts when they free the unneeded resources [9, 14]. The eciency of pricing schemes depends on the tradeo s between the centralized and decentralized budget decision making, and between the frequency of renegotiation and the communication overhead due to renegotiation. It is not dicult to formulate centralized schemes that would enable a client ....

....introduced in [KiKR98] proposes charging for a service to be proportional to the link bit rate attainable by the service. The Expected Capacity Framework approach [ClFa97] adds soft QoS guarantees. In [FeDe98] methods for designing charging schemes for IP services with QoS have been presented. [KaSW98] defined charging requirements and proposed a charging model for IP IntServ. In [KaSW99] models for deriving resource costs from an IntServ flow specification have been established. CaSZ98] introduced a charging and accounting architecture which supports multicast communications for IP ....

....with QoS support requires charging schemes to protect the network from abusive resource reservation. Usage based charging also supports a funding mechanism to extend network capacity at the expense of those users that actually use these resources. Charging requirements are discussed in [22] focusing on Integrated Services, and in [2] focusing on Differentiated Services. Methods for designing charging schemes for IP services with QoS have been presented in [17] It is well accepted that flat rate charging for QoS enhanced IP services has severe shortcomings [30] Usage based ....

....charging for QoS enhanced IP services has severe shortcomings [30] Usage based charging can be based on reserved and or consumed resources, e.g. 17] proposed charging formula based on both reserved and consumed resources. Charging can be based on link bit rate share used by the service [22] or on resource rate and buffer space [23] In [23] models are proposed for deriving resource costs from an IntServ flow specification. Different flow measurement methods for charging and accounting purposes are considered in [13] while different measurement granularity are discussed in [12] ....

....resource costs. Thereby, the practical use of an existing optimal pricing framework [WPS97] is simplified. We also briefly describe other fields of employment [FD98, HSE97] Finally, we show how resource costs can be used for price representation using RSVP charging mechanisms as described in [KSWS98] The structure of this paper follows the outline above. After discussing related work in Section 2, we discuss the IntServ service classes with respect to resource usage in Section 3. Afterwards, in Section 4, virtual resource mapping and a cost model using virtual resource parameters is ....

....knowledge from economic theory to idealized or very general networking scenarios. Protocol Calculation and charging is hardly possible based only on local knowledge, therefore protocol definitions are necessary to exchange charging related information between network entities. In [FSVP98, KSWS98, CSZ98] suggestions for defining protocol elements are made with differing levels of detail. It is important to realize the novel challenge for charging protocol elements, opposite to existing data communication technology: transmission of a protocol message might cause an immediate obliga ....
