An XML-driven framework for policy-based QoS management

This thesis proposes to solve the aforementioned problems by applying XML and companion standards in the design and implementation of a PBNM system, placing focus on QoS management. XML has powerful modelling capabilities and allows the design of data models of arbitrary complexity, as opposed to the data description language of COPS-PR which is limited in flexibility. XML-based protocols are textbased and therefore human readable.
