An admission control algorithm for providing quality-of-service guarantee for individual connection in a video-on-demand system

We consider a theoretical framework for performing admission control in a video-on-demand (VOD) system. Unlike previous work on the admission control on a VOD system guaranteed quality-of-service (QoS) on the aggregated traffic, our admission control algorithm can guarantee the QoS requirements of individual connections. The QoS requirements we consider are the individual connection's bandwidth and the individual connection's packet dropping-rate. These two QoS requirements are specified by users and our admission control algorithm decides whether to admit a new request or not.
