Abstract

The complexity and diversity of novel telecommunication services require experimental systems in order to explore research areas such as resource allocation and management. Firstly, the main problems which occur in this area are analyzed in this paper. Then solutions are given based on our experimental platform which has an universal, object-oriented teleservice model for describing the parties involved in the session, the media used for communication and the allocated network and terminal resources. The objects of this model are created and updated by a service layer signaling protocol. The proposed resource management system provides guaranteed service quality for any kind of multimedia service. The Movie-on-Demand service is described in order to illustrate our concept. The benefits of using hierarchical management layers from the resource reservation's point of view are highlighted by a simulation study.
