As a result of the existing limitations of TCP/IP, significant efforts have been devoted to develop an alternative protocol stack based on the concept of advanced channel reservation, that is specifically tailored for large file transfers and other high throughput applications. This protocol stack is not intended to replace TCP/IP but rather complement it. This paper introduces a new algorithmic framework for advanced channel reservation in ultra high speed networks, called Graded Channel Reservation (GCR). GCR allows users to specify minimum bandwidth and duration requirements for their connections. GCR returns the highest graded path, selected according to a general, multi-criteria optimization objective.
