Abstract

The provision of Network Quality-of-Service (QoS) is a major challenge in the design of future communication systems. Before designing and implementing communication systems, the network QoS requirements have to be specified. In this paper, we present a formal description technique for network QoS called NQSL, which is based on a formalization of network QoS requirements, including QoS mappings for cross-layer design and scalability. QoS requirements are specified on each layer by defining QoS domain, consisting of QoS performance, reliability, and guarantee, and QoS scalability, with utility and cost functions.
