QoS management in experimental environment

New applications usually combine interactivity and multimedia resulting in a huge diversity of possible services. The negotiated quality of service should be result of application/user requirements and network possibilities. The most important topic in QoS provision is how to efficiently manage network resources. This paper describes an experimental implementation of the QoS network management for serving the users by some defined QoS characteristics. The applications developed for negotiation and maintenance of the desired quality of service between the server and clients are analyzed. The main classes of developed applications as well as the connections between applications objects are described. Finally, some results describing functionality of QoS management in experimental environment are shown.
