Abstract
IP networks have to be controlled for providing quality of service necessary for multimedia services. Three possibilities could be proposed to reach this goal:
-
1.
The parameters of the IP architecture are controlled through a multi-agent system. In other words a meta-control is applied to the different algorithms running over the network.
-
2.
A second possibility is to copy what was performed in telecommunication networks: a very general architecture named Intelligent Network (IN). An implementation could be seen through the TINA architecture. However, the IP Intelligent Network platform could be Java/Jini-oriented and in some sense more distributed.
-
3.
A third possibility would deal with active networks. In this case, different possibilities are also available that will be presented. As a conclusion, the three possibilities will be compared.
