Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to setting services required inside and across IP networks known as Quality of Service provision. The first decade of 21st century is a turning point for the Internet provision business as the end users are the customers that will select a service with given or chosen Quality of Service. In the case of service providers that means facilitating dynamic creation of both the service and of the customization. This requires new business approach in form of business model known as mediation. Mediation enables smooth transition and satisfaction of the service requirement condition set up by the end user and the involved service providers. This paper provides insight in the business layer and the relevant business model that is introduced in IP networks enabling QoS provision. It describes briefly the developed model and its implementation within the re-engineered provider network.
