Abstract

The ability to reserve real-time connections in advance is essential in all distributed multi-party applications (i.e., applications involving multiple human beings) using a network that controls admissions to provide good quality of service. This paper discusses the requirements of the clients of an advance reservation service, and a distributed design for such a service. The design is described within the context of the Tenet Real-Time Protocol Suite 2, a suite being developed for multi-party communication, which will offer advance reservation capabilities to its clients based on the principles and the mechanisms proposed in the paper. Some simulation results about the performance of these mechanisms are also presented.
