Abstract

Emerging Internet Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms are expected to enable wide spread use of real time services such as VoIP and videoconferencing&#046; The "best effort" Internet delivery cannot be used for the new multimedia applications&#046; New technologies and new standards are necessary to offer Quality of Service (QoS) for these multimedia applications&#046; Therefore new communication architectures integrate mechanisms allowing guaranteed QoS services as well as high rate communications&#046;<br>This tutorial covers the issues of QoS provisioning in heterogeneous networks and Internet access over future wireless networks, as well as ATM, MPLS, DiffServ, IntServ frameworks&#046; It discusses the characteristics of the Internet, mobility and QoS provisioning in wireless and mobile IP networks&#046; It also covers routing, security, baseline architecture of the inter&#8211;networking protocols and end to end traffic management issues&#046;<br>The tutorial is intended for educators, researchers, students and people interested in gaining an overall understanding of the QoS and next generation networks&#046;
