To minimize real time resource reservation overhead without loss of dynamic resource allocation capability, we decompose an end-to-end path into some independently managed segments
Entrance
Stub network
Core network 1 Core network 2 Core network 3 Exit Stub network
Originating Path Short Path 1 Short Path 2 Short Path 3 Terminating Path
  Long Path  
End-to-End Path
 

Real Time End-to-End Path Set Up
 
 
Global Admission Controller only has to reserve:
 
   
Originating path
 
   
Terminating path
 
   
A few short paths
 
 
Overhaed is much less than RSVP
 
 
Short paths are pre-computed by each core network
