QOS DEFINITION (continued): …  using ordinary "best effort" protocols.QoS can be improved with traffic shaping techniques such as packet prioritization, application classification and queuing at congestion points.Using the Internet's Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), packets passing through a gateway host can be expedited based on policy and reservation criteria arranged in advance. Using ATM, which also lets a company or user preselect a level of quality in terms of service, QoS can be measured and guaranteed in terms of the average delay at a gateway, the variation in delay in a group of cells (cells are 53-byte transmission …
