The authors propose a computationally simple approximate expression for the equivalent
capacity or bandwidth requirement of both individual and multiplexed connections, based on …

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 …

The paper gives models and analytic techniques for addressing critical issues of the
Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network which will use the Asynchronous Transfer …

A framework is presented for the specification of performance requirements, and several
high-level design principles for performance-driven ATM traffic controls based on resource …

For realistic traffic, ie, bursty traffic patterns, the use of tuneable wavelength converters is
recognized as essential for reducing the complexity of photonic wavelength division …

Previously, we determined fundamental performance limitations associated withall-
optical'packet switches, in which the packet buffering is implemented via fiber delay lines. In …

The authors give the complete solution for a stochastic fluid model of statistical multiplexing
with loss priorities in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM)-based broadband ISDN. In this …

Statistical multiplexing with loss priorities is a central element in ATM-based B-ISDN. Cell
priorities arise from the marking schemes employed by the access regulators to identify …

The authors present an approach to computing access control parameters as a function of
both source characteristics and bandwidth allocation in the network. The technique relies on …

In this paper, a novel O (N2) algorithm is presented to minimize the weighted number of
tardy jobs with unit processing times, integer ready times and deadlines, and M …
