Abstract
We present a simple and scalable admission control algorithm for improving the Quality of Service (QoS) in Internet Service Provider (ISP) networks. The algorithm is novel in that it does not make any assumptions regarding the underlying transport technology (works at the IP layer), requires simple data structures and is low in operational complexity, can handle IP network topology changes efficiently, and can help identify congested links in the network. We have verified the working of this algorithm by simulation for arbitrary IP network topologies, and have found it to be successful in performing admission control and identifying congested links after route changes.
