Résumé
To sustain inter-carrier QoS guarantees demanded by future application usages the current Internet has to evolve along two main axes: i) the study, design and implementation of new business models to foster network investments, and ii) the proposal of new architectures and protocols to surmount technical impediments. In the FP7 project ETICS (Economics and Technologies for Inter-Carrier Services) an ecosystem is designed to contribute coherently and effectively to both axes by addressing issues at different levels of network control/management: at a higher level, enhanced Operational Support Systems (OSSs) of network providers will interact to negotiate and commit QoS agreements; at an intermediate level, Network Management Systems (NMSs) will be strengthened to support complex configuration policing; at the control plane level, protocols will be augmented with new features allowing soft or strict QoS guarantees.
