Abstract: The future Internet needs to support broadband services, fixed services, mobile services and a combination of these. Such a wide range of services and multi-processes between users demands flexible and effective network-wide resource scheduling and support. Two approaches are currently being studied: reformative method and revolutionary method. The reformative method, based on existing technology, uses various techniques to achieve improvement. Revolutionary method seeks to address future business demands by completely re-designing the network, and overcoming problems that cannot be solved by current IP networks.
