Abstract

The paper deals with Quality of Service (QoS) in e-commerce Web servers. We consider request service control in a Business-to-Consumer (B2C) Web server system to ensure two business goals: high revenue of the e-retailer and high QoS for key customers with different business values. A problem of optimization of a multi-stage decision process in the context of achieving these goals is formulated. Some simulation results of the system performance under a novel admission control (AC) and scheduling algorithm are discussed.
