We developed a price-based resource allocation scheme for Differentiated Service (DiffServ) data networks.

The global Internet is effectively a loose collection of semi-autonomous constituent networks.

Pricing Communication Networks provides a framework of mathematical models for pricing these multidimensional contracts, and includes background in network services and contracts, network techonology, basic economics, and pricing strategy.
