Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An appropriate quality of service policy is automatically selected as a function of network and business conditions. A current loading condition of an internet protocol network of devices operating, a current condition of radio frequency communications between wireless devices, and a current business condition that indicates a cost or availability of a resource used in device operation remotely controlled via data packet communications, are each determined under current network control and routing rules. If the resource cost or availability exceeds a specified market condition constraint, a special resource control rule is automatically selected to preempt a current network or routing rule to cause one or more of the internet protocol devices to reduce an amount of the resource used or distributed by the first internet protocol device while operating within the current determined internet protocol network loading and radio frequency communications conditions.
