Enabling Dynamic Market-Managed Qos Interconnection In The Next Generation Internet By A Modified Bgp Mechanism, Junseok Hwang, Jorn Altmann, Huw Oliver, Alfonso Suarez Jan 2002

Enabling Dynamic Market-Managed Qos Interconnection In The Next Generation Internet By A Modified Bgp Mechanism, Junseok Hwang, Jorn Altmann, Huw Oliver, Alfonso Suarez

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

We propose a market-managed QoS (Quality of Service) interconnection model for heterogeneous networking environments. The deployment of this model will help autonomous systems to reduce the cost of their network services as well as increase social welfare. We describe a technical solution for a next generation Internet, where networks are managed based on either technology requirements (QoS networks) or market principles (market-managed networks). Our solution requires two technologies: BMP (Bandwidth Management Point) and a modified version of BGP (Border Gateway Protocol). The modified version of BGP, as proposed in this paper, provides additional routing exchange information such as price and …


Exploring Strengths And Limits On Open Source Software Engineering Processes: A Research Agenda, Kevin Crowston, Barbara Scozzi Jan 2002

Exploring Strengths And Limits On Open Source Software Engineering Processes: A Research Agenda, Kevin Crowston, Barbara Scozzi

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

Many researchers have investigated the nature and characteristics of open source software (OSS) projects and their developer communities. In this position paper, after examining some success factors, we discuss potential limits on the replicability and portability of OSS engineering processes. Based on this analysis, we propose a research agenda to better understand the current nature of the processes and thus the strengths and the limitations.
