Due to the dramatic increase in competition over the last few years,
it has become more and more important for Internet Service Providers
(ISPs) to run an efficient business and offer an adequate Quality of
Service. The Competitive Internet Service Provider is a comprehensive
guide for those seeking to do just that. Oliver Heckmann approaches
the issue from a system point of view, looking not only at running a
network, but also at connecting the network with peering and transit
partners or planning the expansion of the network. The Competitive
Internet Service Provider: Offers an advanced reference on the topic,
drawing on state-of-the art research in network technology. Clearly
defines the criteria enabling ISPs to operate with the greatest
efficiency and deliver adequate Quality of Service. Discusses the
implications of the future multiservice Internet and multimedia
applications such as Voice over IP, peer-to-peer, or network games.
Delivers a comparative evaluation of different feasible Quality of
Service approaches. Explores scientific methods such as queuing
theory, network calculus, and optimization theory. Illustrates
concepts throughout with mathematical models and simulations. This
invaluable reference will provide academic and industrial researchers
in the field of network and communications technology, graduate
students on telecommunications courses, as well as ISP managers,
engineers and technicians, equipment manufacturers and consultants,
with an understanding of the concepts and issues involved in running a
successful ISP.
