Description
This book provides a comprehensive examination of Internet QoS theory, standards, vendor implementation and network deployment from the
practitioner's point of view, including extensive discussion of related economic and regulatory issues. Written in a technology-light
way so that a variety of professionals and researchers in the information and networking industries can easily grasp the material. Includes
case studies based on real-world experiences from industry.
The author starts by discussing the economic, regulatory and technical
challenges of the existing QoS model. Key coverage includes defining a clear business model for selling and buying QoS in relation to
current and future direction of government regulation and QoS interoperability (or lack thereof) between carriers and networking devices.
The author then demonstrates how to improve the current QoS model to create a clear selling point, less regulation uncertainty, and higher
chance of deployment success. This includes discussion of QoS re-packaging to end-users; economic and regulatory benefits of the re-packaging;
and the overall benefits of an improved technical approach. Finally, the author discusses the future evolution of QoS from an Internet
philosophy perspective and lets the reader draw the conclusions.
This book is the first QoS book to provide in depth coverage on the
commercial and regulatory aspects of QoS, in addition to the technical aspect. From that, readers can grasp the commercial and regulatory
issues of QoS and their implications on the overall QoS business model. This book is also the first QoS book to provide case studies
of real world QoS deployments, contributed by the people who did the actual deployments. From that, readers can grasp the practical issues
of QoS in real world. This book is also the first QoS book to cover both wireline QoS and wireless QoS. Readers can grasp the QoS issues
in the wireless world. The book was reviewed and endorsed by a long list of prominent industrial and academic figures.
Audience
Network and ISP industry professionals including network architects and operations management, systems engineers, product managers, business
development strategists, marketing people, IT management, academic researchers, and graduate students.
