Congestion Control and Charging for the ABR Service Category in ATM Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Available Bit Service (ABR) is a promising “best effort” service designed to achieve in ATM networks high efficiency and low cell loss. Since the ATM Forum approved a first standard, intensive research has been done about ABR. The aim of this paper is to analyse the main research topics involved in ABR, namely: the evaluation of traffic and congestion control schemes, conformance definition and policing and charging.

Buffer analysis of the explicit rate congestion control mechanism for the ABR service category in ATM networks
In this paper we consider an ABR traac stream which shares an output port of a switch with delay sensitive CBR/VBR traac. Congestion control of the ABR traac is achieved by means of an Explicit Rate congestion control scheme. The occupancy of the ABR-buuer in the switch is analytically evaluated. Application of the analysis on numerical examples illustrates the innuence of the following system ...
