Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks are widely considered to
be the new generation of high speed communication systems both for
broadband public information highways and for local and wide area
private networks. ATM is designed to integrate existing and future
voice, audio, image and data services. Moreover, ATM aims to
simplify the complexity of switching and buffer management, to
optimise intermediate node processing and buffering and to limit
transmission delays. However, to support such diverse services on
one integrated communication network, it is most essential, through
careful engineering, to achieve a fruitful balance amongst the
conflicting requirements of different quality of service
constraints ensuring that one service does not have adverse
implications on another. Over recent years there has been a great
deal of progress in research and development of ATM technology, but
there are still many interesting and important problems to be
resolved such as traffic characterisation and control, routing and
optimisation, ATM switching techniques and the provision of quality
of service. This book presents thirty-two research papers, both
from industry and academia, reflecting latest original achievements
in the theory and practice of performance modelling of ATM networks
worldwide. These papers were selected, subject to peer review, from
those submitted as extended and revised versions out of fifty-nine
shorter papers presented at the Second IFIP Workshop on
"Performance Modelling and Evaluation of ATM Networks" July 4-7,
1994, Bradford University. At least three referees from the
scientific committee and externally were involved in the selection
of each paper.
