Broadening the criteria for QoS performance and guaranteed service through
reputation systems hinge on trust and belief. As the Internet matures in promptness,
reliability, accessibility and foremost security for a certain targeted QoS level, this is
termed as ‘Generalized QoS level’. GQoS includes emphasis on security, reputation
and trust. Invoking economic design principles in the present day Internet have
provided measurable ingredients for QoS as they identified performance criteria such
as average response time, maximum response time, throughput, application failure
probability and packet loss. QoS can be affected by various factors, both quantitative
(i.e., latency, CPU performance, storage capacity etc.) and qualitative that proliferate
through reputation systems hinging on trust and belief .As the Internet matures in
promptness, reliability, availability and foremost security for a certain quality service
level targeted, it embraces a GQoS. level.
