Resource architecture
Architecture de réseau d’information des télécommunications TINA

Network Resource Architecture (NRA) is the architecture that defines the concepts and principles for specifying and designing the functions that control and manage a TINA network [14].

The objectives that led to the definition of the network resource architecture are :

• the architecture must present an end-to-end connection service that transports information between TINA applications, independently of any particular network technology. This concept must be based on the concept of a stream interface defined in the TINA processing model;

• TINA applications require multi-media and multi-point communication sessions. The connection service must support the establishment and control of these communication sessions. These applications specify the desired bandwidth and Quality of Service (QoS) parameters...
