CS402: Computer Communications and Networks

This video explores Quality of Service (QoS) and details strategies for network traffic prioritization. Flows are characterized by bandwidth, delay, jitter, and packet loss for traffic management. There are four primary QoS enhancement techniques and three scheduling methods that dictate packet transmission priorities. Traffic shaping and its two main algorithms are designed to regulate data flow and maintain network efficiency. Admission control and resource reservation are two crucial processes for managing network congestion and ensuring the availability of necessary resources.
