Performance of the IEEE 802.2 type-2 logical link protocol with selective retransmission

The effects on performance of adding the selective retransmission feature to the IEEE 802.2 type-2 logical link protocol are discussed. Simulation results indicate that selective retransmission significantly improves the performance in case of overload and performs as well as an enhancement that was suggested by W. Bux and D. Grillo (see ibid., vol.COM-33, p.1058-65, 1985).<
