Web-Service based Implementation Solution for a Network Service Manager at Network Provider

The multimedia services over the Internet rapid development require QoS management solutions to be implemented in the actual networks. The Internet traffic is now mostly best effort. Additional QoS control mechanisms need to be defined for data networks to be able to offer high quality multimedia services like video on demand or IPTV. Such mechanisms are QoS routing, resource reservation, admission control, service provisioning. End to end QOS management systems should be defined for implementing such mechanisms. This paper presents a Web-service implementation solution for a network service manager in charge with the inter-domain pSLS negotiation process.
