Survey of traffic control schemes and protocols in ATM networks

The authors survey a number of important research topics in ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) networks. The topics covered include mathematical modeling of various types of traffic sources, congestion-control and error-control schemes for ATM networks, and priority schemes to support multiple classes of traffic. Standard activity for ATM networks and future research problems in ATM are also presented. It is shown that the cell-arrival process for data sources can be modeled by a simple Poisson process. However, voice sources or video sources require more complex processes because of the correlation among cell arrivals. Due to the effects of high-speed channels, preventive control is more effective in ATM networks than reactive control. Due to the use of optical fibers in ATM networks, the channel error rate is very small. The effects of propagation delay and processing time become significant in such high-speed networks. These fundamental changes trigger the necessity to reexamine the error-control schemes used in existing networks. Due to the diversity of service and performance requirements, the notion of multiple traffic classes is required, and separate control mechanisms should be used according to the traffic classes. The priority scheme is shown to be an effective method to support multiple classes of traffic. >
