A quality of service-aware routing based on adaptive-gossiping algorithm for ad hoc wireless networks, 2011: abstract (Quality-of-service (QoS) is a set of requirements to ensure the timely delivery of data information through the network from one source to a destination ...)
Microsoft computer dictionary, 2002: p. 432 (Quality of service. 1. Generally the handling capacity of a system or service; the time interval between request and delivery of the product or service to the client or customer. 2. In computer technology, the guaranteed throughput (data transfer rate) level.; QoS.)
Cox, Christopher. An introduction to LTE, 2012: p. 201 (... each EPS bearer was associated with a certain quality of service (QoS), which describes information such as the error rate, delay and total date of its constituent service data flows. Quality of service is itself associated with two other concepts, gating and charging, which collectively determine how the network will handle a particular bearer.)

Thus, QoS is the set of techniques to manage network resources.)
