Extension of Resource Management in SIP

In this work we discuss the issue of communication QoS management in a high performance network oriented to carry GRID application. Based on a set of previous works that successfully proved the feasibility of the concept, we propose to use sessions to logically identify and manage the communication between the applications. As a consequence the quality of service of the communication is mapped on reservation of network resources to support a given session. Starting from a framework defined to support such a task for VoIP applications we show here how this framework can be extended to match the need of GRID computing.
