Due to its properties, such as packet-oriented information transfer without flow control and flexible allocation of transmission capacity, in order to ensure quality of service for all existing calls, it is necessary to monitor and regulate the traffic for each call based on the traffic descriptor. This kind of control is the role of a policing function. In currently proposed policing schemes, we believe that it is hard to find a good mean rate policing scheme. Furthermore, it is hard to find an appropriate performance measure for comparing the policing schemes. Therefore, we propose a new policing scheme that is effective in mean rate policing and a new more practical performance measure, and then we show the efficacy of our proposed policing scheme by simulation, in terms of the proposed performance measure.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123310643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A primary objective of such modeling is usually to insure that performance objectives are met in a cost effective manner. Often a variety of simulation and analytic tools are used, but invariably there is no relationship between any of the tools. To address this problem (as well as others, including model reuse), an open, object-oriented environment consisting of a variety of integrated toolsets for modeling, analysis, simulation and engineering of computer/communications systems is being developed at Monmouth University. MASE, an integrated toolset built around a generalized queueing network paradigm, is the first toolset in that environment.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129853764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All MTs within a cell communicate with other MTs through a base station which is installed within the cell. This base station is connected to other base stations and stationary terminals through an underlying wireline network. In order to route incoming calls, each MT reports its location to the network by a process called location update. This paper introduces a location update policy which minimizes the cost of mobile terminal (MT) location tracking. An MT dynamically determines when to perform location update based on its mobility pattern and the incoming call arrival probability. The performance of this scheme is close to that of the optimal policy reported earlier. However, the processing time requirement of this scheme is very low. The minimal computation required by this scheme enables its usage in MTs which has limited energy supply and computational power.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130273987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We study the problem of using dynamic routing to VP-based ATM networks by transforming it into an equivalent multi-rate circuit-switched network problem. To further simplify the analysis, we restrict the choice of path to single-link and two-link routes. We propose a dynamic routing algorithm based on the least loaded routing (LLR) with packing.
