Abstract

As multimedia communications are developing rapidly in Internet, in order to improve the end-to-end (E2E) performance, we propose an overlay routing layer middleware (ORLM) aiming to overcome the limit inherent in the Internet’s IP-layer routing service with the aid of a cross-layer design, based on the ALTO service and the NGI QoS support. In this paper, we mainly show the design principles and details of our routing middleware, including the general architecture and function modules, the proposed flow label definition and its related usage in the overlay network scenario, and the TE (Traffic Engineering) –awareness feature.
