ATM Network Performance describes a unified approach to ATM network
management. The focus is on satisfying quality-of-service
requirements for individual B-ISDN connections. For an ATM network
of output-buffer switches, the author describes how the basic
network resources (switch buffer memory and link transmission
bandwidth) should be allocated to achieve the required
quality-of-service connections. The performance of proposed
bandwidth scheduling policies is evaluated. Both single node and
end-to-end performance results are given. In particular, these
results are applied to resource provisioning problems for
prerecorded (stored) video and video teleconferencing. The flow
control problem for available bit rate traffic is also described.
This book is intended for a one-term course in performance of
Broadband Integrated-Services Digital Networks (B-ISDNs) based on a
type of packet-switched communication network called Asynchronous
Transfer Mode (ATM). The level of presentation is at the first year
of graduate studies and for professionals working in the field, but
it may be accessible to senior undergraduates as well. Some
familiarity with ATM standards is assumed as such standards are
only briefly outlined. All of the required background in
discrete-time queueing theory is supplied. Exercises are given at
the end of chapters. Solutions and/or hints to selected exercises
are given in an Appendix.
