Required Capacity for ATM Virtual Paths for QoS on Cell and Connection Level
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show approximation formulae for required capacities (bit rates) of ATM Virtual Paths that cover allocation on cell and connection level at the same time. Such formulae are valuable for dimensioning and routing purposes, as they allow for fast and precise calculations of required capacities and show the kind of dependency on the traffic demand for given traffic characteristics and Quality of Service requirements. We discuss how to determine the coefficients of the approximation and its precision for connections with on-/off characteristics (voice, data). Finally, we show the gain that might be obtained if statistical multiplexing of variable bit rate connections is taken into account on the cell level.

Bandwidth allocation scheme in ATM networks based on virtual path for different quality of service (QoS) requirements
Bandwidth allocation is a very important issue in ATM networks, especially when there are random fluctuating demands for service and variations in the service rates. In order to make ATM reliable, ATM is designed to support not only a wide range of traffic classes with diverse flow characteristics but also to guarantee the different Quality of Service (QoS) requirement as well. The QoS may be m...
متن کاملINQIRE: A Software Approach to Monitoring QoS in ATM Networks
32 synchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a connection-oriented, fast packet switching protocol adopted for broadband integrated services digital networks (B-ISDN) [1, 2]. All types of voice, video, and data information are carried in 53-byte ATM cells consisting of 5-byte headers and 48-byte information fields. Unlike traditional best-effort packet networks, ATM networks can support a wide range o...
متن کاملAgent Technology for Connection Admission Control in Complex ATM Networks
Connection Admission Control (CAC) in an ATM network is the set of actions taken by the network at connection set-up (or during call re-negotiation) in order to establish whether a (virtual channel/virtual path) connection can be accepted or rejected. A connection request is accepted only when sufficient resources are available to establish the call through the whole network at its required Qua...
متن کاملMultiparameter Qos Admission Control for Atm Queues with Partial Buuer Sharing Mechanism
In this paper, we present an admission control technique for mixed real-time and nonreal-time tra c in nite length queues with PBS cell loss control. Real-time connections have both delay and loss constraints while non-real-time connections are only subject to cell loss constraints. We propose to provide each type of tra c with a separate capacity subregion with di erent QoS bounds. We introduc...
متن کاملVirtual Path Layouts with Low Congestion or Low Diameter in ATM Networks
Motivated by Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) in telecommunication networks, we investigate the problem of designing a directed virtual topology on a directed physical topology, which consists in nding a set of directed virtual paths (VPs) satisfying some constraints in terms of load (the number of VPs sharing a physical link) and hop count (the number of VPs used to establish a connection). Fo...
