After more than a decade of active research on Quality of Service in IP networks and the
Internet, the majority of IP traffic relies on the conventional best-effort IP service model …

This paper reviews the threat of economic denial of sustainability on recent communication
networks and discusses their adaptation to emergent scenarios suited for self-organization …

Performance evaluation is often the critical part of evaluating the results of a research
