A Performance Evaluation of Connectionless Overlay Networks for ATM
نویسنده
چکیده
Introducing the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) causes a backwards compatibility problem, because ATM is connection-oriented whereas most of today’s LANs are connectionless. Interconnection can be achieved by the use of connectionless servers (CLS). These servers together with a number of preestablished virtual circuits form a connectionless overlay network on top of ATM. In this paper we evaluate overlay networks that differ in number, location and interconnection of CLSs by computation of mean cell delay and link load.

Internetting connectionless data networks with a wide area public ATM network
| Connectionless data services on ATM-based B-ISDN can be realized directly by means of the connectionless service function which is provided in connectionless servers. In this paper, we consider how to locate a certain amount of connectionless servers among the switching nodes in a public ATM network for the internetworking of connectionless data networks. The problem is formulated as a networ...
متن کاملArchitecture and Design of Connectionless Data Service for a Public ATM Network
The deployment of a high speed, wide area ATM network introduces a “backwards compatibility” dilemma. While emerging ATM networks must be capable of transporting traffic sources such as digital voice and video, many of the design choices that optimize ATM for voice and video make the transport of traditional connectionless data traffic difficult. This paper proposes the overlay of a virtual dat...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Connectionless Service for ATM Networks
This paper investigates the performance of the direct approach to connectionless service over ATM. The direct approach utilizes connectionless servers, attached to or incorporated in a subset of the ATM switches, to provide a packet switching service. The number of connectionless servers and ATM connections utilized by the direct approach is found analytically and compared to alternative approa...

متن کاملTopological Optimization of an ATM-based Connectionless Overlay Network
Abstract An economical provision of a direct connectionless service in ATM requires a carefully designed virtual network of connectionless servers (CLS). We propose fully connected virtual channel (VC) overlay networks within the lowest level peer groups of an OSPF-like hierarchy. This offers the best solution with respect to routing and delay objectives. Because a statistical multiplexing gain...
