Method and System for a Novel Flow Admission Control Framework
- Summary
- No network can expect to guarantee the QoS if it admits more traffic than can be sustained by the network. It is a general consensus that without flow admission control (FAC), the Internet's QoS problem can not be solved. This invention presents a new FAC framework that keeps the stateless property of the Internet, allow statistical multiplexing gains, and can handle admission control of both TCP and UDP flows.
- Technology Benefits
- 1. Can solve the seemingly unsolvable QoS problem in the Internet
- Technology Application
- - High definition video distributed through P2P

Title: Method and system for a novel flow admission control framework
Usefulness: Method and system for a novel flow admission control framework
Summary: Method for admitting flows e.g. premium-class transmission control protocol (TCP) flows and premium-class user datagram protocol (UDP) flows, into a symmetric network e.g. tree topology network, nonblocking network (all claimed) and packet network.
Novelty: Flows e.g. premium-class transmission control protocol flows, admitting method for e.g. tree topology network, involves detecting setup packet of flow, and blocking additional flows when traffic overflow occurs
