Abstract
Optimal flow control protocols for ATM networks that satisfy grade
of service (GOS) requirements and fairness criteria are developed. The
authors propose a novel node-oriented approach for flow control based on
a modified definition of power. In this approach, bandwidth allocation
and enforcement are carried out for groups of users multiplexed at nodes
rather than for each individual user as in previous designs. Higher
efficiency and ease of implementation are among the key features of this
approach. A dynamic bandwidth sharing scheme which dynamically
partitions the optimal bandwidth among all the ATM service categories is
also introduced. The methodology can handle all the services in ATM
networks, namely CBR, VBR, ABR and UBR services
