Abstract

This paper describes the FIPA-based QoS Negotiator Application, designed as an evolution of the QoS Broker architecture, to provide end-to-end QoS and local resources (i.e. CPU and Memory) reservation capabilities, by using a set of FIPA-compliant agents. The QoS Negotiator application architecture is described, defining the agents that compose it (i.e. QoS Broker+ agent, Control Agent, Monitor Agent and the Resource Management Agent). In addition, a new ontology is defined for the interaction of the new agents in the application. The QoS Negotiator application can be used as a QoS Broker for FIPA-agent nomadic applications as well as a signaling plane for non-agent applications.
