چکیده

ATM is seen by many users today as a solution to networks with bandwidth limitation. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the amount of communication bandwidth actually available to applications rather than raw network bandwidth. In order to determine ATM’s bandwidth between applications, we studied the performance of an ATM LAN based on Fore Systems’ hardware. This was achieved by emulating both memory-based and disk-based transfer over TCP/IP/ATM and the Fore Systems’ API/ATM protocols. Varying parameters such as the type of AAL, the size of the maximum transmission unit and the network configuration, allowed us to determine their effect on application bandwidth as well as cell loss and bottlenecks. MOTS CLÉS : ATM, TCP/IP, bande passante, protocoles de communication, mesure de performances, débit.

Secure Bio-Cryptographic Authentication System for Cardless Automated Teller Machines

Security is a vital issue in the usage of Automated Teller Machine (ATM) for cash, cashless and many off the counter banking transactions. Weaknesses in the use of ATM machine could not only lead to loss of customer’s data confidentiality and integrity but also breach in the verification of user’s authentication. Several challenges are associated with the use of ATM smart card such as: card clo...

Performance Evaluation of ATM Shortcut Connections in Overlaid IP/ATM Networks

In this paper we present methods to evaluate the benefit of using direct ATM connections (shortcuts) between IP nodes in IP over ATM networks, and we identify the combinations of IP and ATM network topologies where ATM shortcut benefits are likely to be higlh. We model an IP/ATM network with and without ATM shortcuts as two loss networks. We propose a metric for network performance comparison, ...

Performance of Asynchronous, Variable Bit Rate Communications over ATM: A Comparison with FDDI

Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology performance is evaluated for Class C (variable bit rate, asynchronous) data transfer, as would be typically found when migrating legacy applications to an ATM environment. Of particular interest are the end-to-end latencies obtainable using ATM networks to transfer time critical data. Latencies obtained using Classical IP over ATM and raw ATM using th...
