LRM: A Local Band Resource Management System.

In conventional Best-Effort forwarding (BE) service network (e.g., Internet), the bandwidth resource for video streaming is unfixed and service performance is highly dependent on the rest local bandwidth. In this paper, local band resource management (LRM) system is developed for managing the bandwidth of local access network as well as providing Assured Forwarding (AF) service. Test results show that LRM not only provides effective management for local band resource but improves the QoS of video streaming greatly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
