Mediation devices in an asynchronous network of low power consumption communication devices are leveraged through the use of new protocols (2500) that analyze relevant QoS parameters (2520) in order to provide a better than best effort service in the network. These protocols invoke adaptive quality of...http://www.google.de/patents/US7440462?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US7440462 - Quality of service (QOS) control mechanisms using mediation devices in an asynchronous network
