Abstract
With the advent of multimedia in computing and communication systems, a new set of requirements has been imposed. Because multimedia applications demand a guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS), the sharing of resources, by means of allocating applications and their communications on computing and communication resources, is an important issue. In this paper, we address the issues of communication routing and process allocation in an integrated way, the so-called routations. It is only in such an integrated way that end-to-end Quality of Service requirements of multimedia end-users can be fulfilled.
