Abstract
In this short paper we make the point that although there may be a gap between academic and industrial research in the area of quality of service (QoS), this gap can be narrowed. In order for this to happen, it is important that the academic and industrial players jointly make an effort to better understand business drivers and end user needs and analyze how networks are used and how they are likely to evolve. That is, understanding the key drivers (the “why”-s) in the QoS area is the key in bringing academic and industrial research (that aims to answer the “how”-s) closer to each other.
