dc.description.abstractThe fast Internet growth has led to high demands for QoS provisioning mechanism to be implemented in the future Internet This dissertation presents the development and implementation of a resource reservation scheme to allocate and manage resources in the future internet. Resource reservation as one of QoS techniques used for QoS provisioning in the network is crucial for many newly developed user applications to flourish and prosper. The Scalable Efficient Reservation Protocol (SERP) is proposed to efficiently allocate and manage resources in the future Internet. The proposed scheme, Scalable Efficient Reservation Protocol (SERP), takes into consideration the fact that the future Internet will accommodate both real-time and non-real-time applications. Relevant design goals and principles were identified and these led to a formulation of a corresponding model. A simulation of the model was conducted to evaluate the performance of the developed scheme. The experimental results do show that SERP reduces the router load with less states information to be maintained. Use of aggregate-based reservation further reduces states information. Consequently SERP improves scalability. The results further demonstrate that SERP has high request acceptance probability and more connections are established for end-to-end reservation.en_US
