Abstract
A framework for studying the end-to-end QOS mapping between the various levels of the transport protocol stack is presented. A platform for evaluating end-to-end QOS that supports concurrent network, transport and application level measurements is described. QOS measurements for various video clips indicate that the loss bound obtained under the assumption of uniformly distributed cell losses within a video frame is too conservative.
