Abstract :
XiPeng Xiao, in Technical, Commercial and Regulatory Challenges of QoS, manages to present an impressively comprehensive view of the provisioning of quality of service (QoS) in IP networks. After obtaining a Ph.D. degree from Michigan State University, the author became involved with product management for multiple network equipment vendors in Silicon Valley, as well as global network service providers. The author also participates in international standard organizations, including the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). However, most important, he is a technologist turned marketing person, currently in charge of product marketing in a world-leading telecom solutions provider. This unique background enables him to describe different aspects, views, and opinions: the big picture of QoS.
