Performance Evaluation of the Conformance Definition for the ABR Service in ATM Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The standardization bodies have defined the Dynamic Generic Cell Rate Algorithm (DGCRA) as the Conformance Definition for ABR. This algorithm may be implemented in the Usage Parameter Control (UPC) for policing. In this paper we describe an equivalent queuing model of the DGRCA and we solve this model using a matrix analytic approach. The analytical results are validated by simulation.

Congestion Control and Charging for the ABR Service Category in ATM Networks
The Available Bit Service (ABR) is a promising “best effort” service designed to achieve in ATM networks high efficiency and low cell loss. Since the ATM Forum approved a first standard, intensive research has been done about ABR. The aim of this paper is to analyse the main research topics involved in ABR, namely: the evaluation of traffic and congestion control schemes, conformance definition...

متن کاملInteroperability Performance Evaluation of ATM ABR Switches
ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks make use of closed-loop rate-based feedback control in the ABR (Available Bit Rate) service in order to avoid network congestion. ABR mechanisms enable network designers to position node buffering requirements within their networks. End-user applications, such as Internet applications, benefit from the control action of ABR. ABR control attempts to main...
متن کاملCDVT Dimensioning in the ABR Service of ATM Networks
The Available Bit Rate Service (ABR) has been designed to be an eecient data transport Service for ATM networks. The standardization bodies have deened the Dynamic Generic Cell Rate Algorithm (DGCRA) as the Conformance Deenition for ABR. When setting up an ABR connection, a Cell Delay Variation Tolerance (CDVT) has to be negotiated for the DGCRA. In this report we study the CDVT dimensioning fo...
متن کاملUse-it or Lose-it Policies for the Available Bit Rate (ABR) Service in ATM Networks
Ž . The Available Bit Rate ABR service has been developed to support data applications over Asynchronous Transfer Ž . Mode ATM . The ABR service uses a closed-loop rate-based traffic management framework where the network divides left-over bandwidth among contending sources. The ATM Forum traffic management group also incorporated open-loop control capabilities to make the ABR service robust to...
