Summary form only given. It is widely acknowledged that the convergence is the way to evolve the existing wireline and wireless networks towards next generation networks.
In this paper, we discuss one aspect of the measurement issue: how to measure end-to-end application response time (ART) relative to aggregated "tunable" network latency, or tunable latency.
1 The Future Internet will see the emergence of value-added applications (e.g. Cloud Computing, telepresence, etc.) requiring Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees across multiple managed networks.
The always increasing use of broadband Internet and complex multimedia applications is pushing fiber closer and closer to the homes.
Packet-based networks are more and more used to transport interactive streaming services like telephony and videophony.
Two-phase routing, where traffic is first distributed to intermediate nodes before being routed to the final destination, has been recently proposed for handling widely fluctuating traffic without
This paper aims to highlight the importance of end-to-end service quality for cloud services especially for the case of telecom carrier grade services.
The need to monitor real time network services has prompted service providers to use new measurement technologies, such as service-specific probes.
ICs with IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan (BS) Architecture have been widely used in board level design to increase the testability.
Time sensitive applications, most notably, for 5G fronthauling and Industry 4.0, require deterministic (jitter-free) low latency, highly reactive, and trustable networks, as opposed to today's best
