Abstract

This paper discusses dynamic bandwidth management in corporate networks for supporting interactive multimedia applications. We show that particular characteristics of corporate networks and the highly dynamic resource requirements of interactive applications make dynamic allocation of network bandwidth both attractive and feasible. We compare several bandwidth allocation strategies via simulations based on the measured characteristic of an actual interactive TV application used in medical training.
