Abstract
Modern communication networks carry a broad range of various applications such as data, voice, and video, and network providers are increasingly faced to the problems of traffic and resource management in order to meet the increasing quality of service (QoS) requirements. In particular, multi-media and realtime applications are sensitive with respect to QoS. In this paper we propose novel traffic engineering concepts for QoS that, in contrast to already existing solutions, need no intelligent functionality inside the core network and furthermore provide access to resource dimensioning in a comfortable way.
