Abstract

We introduce a novel delay pricing and charging scheme in deadline-based networks to support real-time data delivery. We study the delay performance observed by individual users when different levels of deadline urgency are specified and take a market-based approach to determining a delay price. Our pricing and charging scheme can be used to prevent greedy users from gaining an advantage by specifying arbitrarily urgent deadlines, and can also aid in network load control when equipped with user budget constraints.
