The migration to integrated backbone networks for voice, data, and multimedia
applications introduces new challenges in supporting predictable communication
performance for a large variety of applications.
Quality-of-service routing can greatly improve network utilization
and application performance by finding paths likely to satisfy application
requirements and directing traffic at the flow or connection level.
