Models of Quality of Service and Quality of Information Assurance Towards Their Dynamic Adaptation

Abstract : This report documents the details of the technical work accomplished by Arizona State University on defining Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Information Assurance (QoIA) models/metrics to enable intelligent QoS and QoIA trade-offs. ASU's task was to: (1) Establish QoS models/metrics and (2) Define and establish QoIA models/metrics. This report describes all of the research accomplished, information gained, techniques and procedures used in the research process applied during the performance of this project. It includes pertinent observations, discussion of problems encountered, positive and negative results, test case scenario design, and the results of the testing.
