Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The conventional Internet has only provided the best-effort service, which does not offer any QoS (Quality-of-Serivice) guarantees. However, recent developments of multimedia applications require QoS guarantees for real-time transfers, which eventually intoduced reservation-based protocols. However, it is still controversial whether reservation-based service is necessary or not, since the reservation-based protocol has several problems such as protocol overhead and scalability. In this paper, we introduce user's utility to quantify QoS, and it is used to compare the best-effort and reservation-based services to discuss which service gives a better solution for real-time applications.
