Describes the traffic management functions needed to support a range of services in a single network. Although the book focuses specifically on ATM traffic management strategy, the general concepts also apply to any networking technology that supports multiple services with varying quality-of-service objectives. Conformance, admission control, scheduling, flow control, and congestion control are discussed in detail. The book also describes how other networking technologies such as Frame Relay and the Internet Protocol can be carried efficiently on an ATM network. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
