A Measurement Based Connection Admission Control for ATM Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new adaptive measurement-based Connection Admission Control (CAC) for ATM networks is proposed. Several CAC methods are considered, and the efficiency/complexity trade-off is studied. In all methods, when a new call arrives, the CAC makes a decision to accept or reject the call according to a novel procedure for free bandwidth evaluation. This procedure is based on online measurements and on an adaptive feedback mechanism. The most complex CAC scheme involves keeping records of the total amount of work that has arrived for every single connection during its entire duration and the use of “warming up period” for conservative CAC operation. Also multiple time-scale histograms keep track of the aggregate traffic per link. In the simpler CAC scheme, different aspects of this complex approach are simplified. Simulation results based on real VBR traces demonstrate that utilization level of over 70% can be achieve without the needs for Call-by-Call measurements and use of the “warming up period”.

A Review of Connection Admission Control Algorithms for ATM Networks
The emergence of high-speed networks such as those with ATM integrates large numbers of services with a wide range of characteristics. Admission control is a prime instrument for controlling congestion in the network. As part of connection services to an ATM system, the Connection Admission Control (CAC) algorithm decides if another call or connection can be admitted to the Broadband Network. T...

In this paper we present an algorithm for making connection admission decisions in ATM networks, using measurements made on existing connections and the declared parameters of the new connections. Our scheme makes use of the shape-function, a concept developed by Botvich and Duueld 28], which arises in the application of Large Deviation theory to queueing systems. By estimating the shape-functi...
متن کاملTraffic Characterisation and Connection Admission Control in ATM Networks
The greatly variable requirements of different applications, particularly those of video and data sources, make high demands on the development of traffic control in ATM networks. A control scheme in ATM networks should take into account the limited knowledge of traffic behaviour, the additional expenses due to complexity and the profit achieved by high utilisation. The purpose of this study wa...

The Connection Admission Control(CAC) is part of ATM traffic control and consists of a framework that optimizes network usage while ensuring the desired QoS for the services. The CAC approach we propose for ATM networks is based on a effective bandwidth allocation strategy. This paper addresses the effective bandwidth computation based on a probabilistic model for cell level QoS and call level ...
