服务质量监控：跨专有内容域的性能指标
Quality of service monitoring: Performance metrics across proprietary content domains
摘要：
我们提出了一个服务质量（QoS）的监测计划，宽带接入，以衡量专有网络空间的影响。我们的论文调查了其他QoS政策措施，包括航空公司，无线和有线电话行业，在其他市场进行监管下放的背景下，以提高宽带。我们说明了如何网络架构可以创建开放的通信的障碍，以及如何QoS监控可以检测到这样的影响。我们目前正在开发的QoS监测软件的现场测试的数据。我们建议的QoS指标来衡量信息“围墙花园”是否代表一个真正的威胁划分到专有空间的互联网。为了证明我们的建议，我们正在把我们的软件放在宽带用户的计算机上。该软件定期进行一系列测试，评估从用户计算机到各种内容网站的连接质量。任何系统性的差异，在连接质量之间的附属和非附属的内容网站将值得研究这些差异的行为影响。QoS监控是及时的，因为互联网闯入专有内容域的松散网络的可能性似乎比以往任何时候都更大。最近的法院裁决和政策声明表明，越来越多的趋势是放松对合并的审查，放松或取消内容所有权规则。这种政策环境可能会导致市场上出现少数大型垂直整合的网络运营商，每个运营商都向用户推送其专有内容。
英文摘要：
We propose a quality of service (QoS) monitoring program for broadband access to measure the impact of proprietary network spaces. Our paper surveys other QoS policy initiatives, including those in the airline, and wireless and wireline telephone industries, to situate broadband in the context of other markets undergoing regulatory devolution. We illustrate how network architecture can create impediments to open communications, and how QoS monitoring can detect such effects. We present data from a field test of QoS-monitoring software now in development. We suggest QoS metrics to gauge whether information "walled gardens" represent a real threat for dividing the Internet into proprietary spaces. To demonstrate our proposal, we are placing our software on the computers of a sample of broadband subscribers. The software periodically conducts a battery of tests that assess the quality of connections from the subscriber's computer to various content sites. Any systematic differences in connection quality between affiliated and non-affiliated content sites would warrant research into the behavioral implications of those differences. QoS monitoring is timely because the potential for the Internet to break into a loose network of proprietary content domains appears stronger than ever. Recent court rulings and policy statements suggest a growing trend towards relaxed scrutiny of mergers and the easing or elimination of content ownership rules. This policy environment could lead to a market with a small number of large, vertically integrated network operators, each pushing its proprietary content on subscribers.
