Abstract
In the next generation Internet, the network will evolve from a plain communication medium into one that provides endless services to the users. These services will be composed of multiple cooperative distributed application elements. We name these services overlay applications . The cooperative application elements within an overlay application will build a dynamic communication mesh, namely an overlay association . The Quality of Service (QoS) perceived by the users of an overlay application greatly depends on the QoS experienced on the communication paths of the corresponding overlay association . In this paper, we present super-peer alternate path discovery (SPAD), a distributed middleware architecture that aims at providing enhanced QoS between end-points within an overlay association . To achieve this goal, SPAD provides a complete scheme to discover and utilize composite alternate end-to-end paths with better QoS than the path given by the default IP routing mechanisms.
