GENERALIZED INTERCONNECTION APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING SERVICES BASED ON REAL TIME PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

摘要

A system for interconnecting network operators (340a, 340b) with each other based on class of service (360, 365, 370, 380, 390) is provided, taking real-time (360, 365, 370) performance requirements) for each service into consideration, as a result, services can be sent or received in real time, with greater guarantee of network resources, in one non-limiting embodiment, the delivery path for service traffic is based on the real-time performance requirement categories (360, 365, 370) assigned to each service during a pre-processing step. Thus, services having the highest real-time performance (360) demands can be delivered faster using greater network resources, whereas the services without any real-time (380, 390) performance requirements are processed/delivered using fewer network resources.
