Abstract

Starting from a new concept of connection, the partial order connection (POC), we introduce the design principles of a multimedia partial order Transport connection (MM-POC), that allows one to define a multimedia QoS consistent with multimedia application requirements. A complete definition of the proposed multimedia partial order service (MM-POS) is provided including complete definition of the QoS parameters and the service primitives needed to open/close a connection, negotiate/renegociate the QoS parameters, transmit data and notify service users when loss occurs or the negotiate QoS is not being provided.
