Evaluation of the Available Bit Rate Service Category in ATM Networks

Tags:
atm

Overview This paper evaluates various aspects of the ABR flow control schemes using three different evaluation techniques: analysis, simulation and experiments. A discrete-time Markov model allows the evaluation of the influence of different system parameters (distance between source and switch, burstiness of CBR/VBR traffic, time in between computation of Allowed Cell Rate and burstiness of ABR traffic)) on the ABR traffic throughput and the ABR buffer requirements. This study leads to some simple engineering rules for the ABR service category. The paper investigates through simulation the ability of the ERICA+ switch algorithm to provide minimum throughput guarantees to Internet TCP/IP traffic.
