چکیده
The increased reliance upon computer networking as a modern communication media has placed much pressure on scientists to develop robust, powerful, and flexible networking models. In this paper, we describe Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks which were introduced in the last decade and currently carry a significant proportion of the global network traffic. We discuss the advancements ATM has made in the last few years. Finally, we observe that work remains to be done in the field of congestion control algorithms and describe our experience with a simulator that makes the study of these algorithms manageable.

متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of ATM Congestion Control Mechanisms
Tt is widely believed that closed-loop per-VC flow control is needed to effectively deal with congestion for ABR traffic in ATM networks. The many ATM flow control mechanisms that have been proposed can be divided in two classes. A first class consists of roundtrip-based rate control algorithms in which a source selects a transmit rate for each VC, based on feedback from the switches along its ...
متن کاملDesign and simulation of ATM-ABR end system congestion control
We develop a simulation model for the ATM ABR service, and use it to engineer ABR congestion control behavior. Although significant work has been performed on ABR rate allocation algorithms at network switches, little work has focused on the end system behavior, which we examine in this paper. The effect of the speed of links on the path from the source to the destination, and the connection ro...
