- Optimal Routing of Dynamically Priced Network Services
- The use of dynamically priced network services was previously proposed to provide QoS guarantees within a network. End-to-end QoS can be achieved by concatenating several of these services from different ISPs. This paper considers the problem of a single ISP determining the optimal paths on which to route each service...
