Abstract
A data flow system, where a sourcetransmits a reservation packet to an ingress element. The ingress elementpolices incoming message traffic and collects data flow information. Quality of service differentiation is realized by marking data packets of different data flows. The ingress elementregisters the reservation packet and forwards the request to a core router. The core routerevaluates the service level required, and available resources. Based on this evaluation the core routerwill reject, accept, or modify the received message, indicate the price for the requested level of service, and forward the reservation packet. The process is repeated until the reservation packet reaches the destination, which sends a feedback message to the sourceindicating the result of the reservation packet. After establishing a reservation, sourcetransmits periodic control messages and collects information regarding resource availability, and the flow path.
