1.1 Overview
QoS (Quality of Service) is a concept generally existing in occasions with service
supply and demand. It evaluates the ability to meet the need of the customers in service.
Generally, the evaluation is not to grade precisely. Its purpose is to analyze the
conditions when the service is the best and the conditions when the service still needs
improvement and then to make improvements in the specified aspects.
In internet, QoS evaluates the ability of the network to deliver packets. The evaluation
on QoS can be based on different aspects because the network provides various
services. Generally speaking, QoS is the evaluation on the service ability to support the
core requirements such as delay, delay variation and packet loss ratio in the packet
delivery.
