The scheme is able to allocate network bandwidth in a Pareto-optimal way that maximizes the total surplus. The key idea is to decompose the service provision procedure among three separate parties whose interactions are governed by a set of competitive pricing mechanisms.EnglishAsynchronous transfer modeBandwidthComputer simulationLocal area networksMathematical modelsResource allocationTelecommunication networksTelecommunication trafficConnection oriented networksConnectionless servicesPricing schemeTelecommunication servicesConference Paper10.1109/MELCON.1996.551281
