The problem solved in the broadcast protocol is how multiple nodes can broadcast concurrently, in an asynchronous manner, to all other nodes. Asynchronous means that the nodes do not coordinate their broadcast, and therefore, it is possible that all nodes will start to broadcast at the same time. Simultaneous broadcast 'by many nodes can cause traffic congestion, which can result in high packet/cell loss. The main property of this broadcast algorithm is that under any arbitrary pattern there will be no packet/cell loss due to internal traffic congestion. The semi-FIFO is a protocol for reliable transmission of data where there is no FIFO requirement on the routing of data units, and only the control messages of the protocol should maintain FIFO order. It is shown how the semi-FI[FO property can be obtained in deflection routing, with guarantee convergence along a global sense o:f direction, as proposed in the MetaNet architecture. The protocol is simple and uses only one timer per connection and does not require an estimate of the round trip delay in order to perform correctly. The dynamic self-routing on the MetaSet is a variant of deflectzon routtng. It makes on-line routing decisions based on the local flow of traffic (load conditions). Unlike other deflection techniques, the MetaNet routing is along a global s e n s e of ditectzon, which guarantees that packets/cells will reach their destinations. Thus, we call this method convergence ro u t t ng.","PeriodicalId":285275,"journal":{"name":"The 8th IEEE Workshop on Computer Communications","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122690164","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}

TrafEc shaping has been shown to improve quality of service in an ATM network. Traffic shaping, however, does not come for free. The traffic stream being shaped suffers a shaping penalty at the shaping mechanism. In ATM wide area networks (WANs), shaping penalty and improvement in quality of service by shaping traffic have been investigated independently. Our model quantifies both of these quantities so that the overall quality of service seen by a traffic stream can be investigated. Motivated by our investigations, we propose a traffic shaping mechanism termed closed-loop source shaping (CLSS). In this mechanism, information about the impact of shaping on network performance is fed back to the shaping mechanism to set the shaping parameters for efficient performance. Feedback mechanisms are feasible in ATM LANs since the network and the traffic source are under one control. Numerical results to indicate dependence of shaping mechanism parameters on the overall load, traffic characteristics and the quality of service desired are presented.","PeriodicalId":285275,"journal":{"name":"The 8th IEEE Workshop on Computer Communications","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121554577","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}

The basic PCS philosophy is that the underlying telecommunication infrastructure will provide user-to-user, location independent, communication services. An indispensable feature of a personal communication network is that the final interface between the portable terminal and the network will be wireless, through radio base stations wired to the backbone network. In addition t o phone, a wide variety of services will be supported by PCS, including among others, video, pictures (picture-phone), paging and multimedia services. These services generate a large volume of communication traffic with diverse burstiness characteristics and quality of service requirements.

The efficient use of this enormous bandwidth in distributed communications networks, however, poses several novel challenges. These challenges can be overcome in part with the design of new, more powerful photonic devices, and in part with the development of novel protocols and systems architectures. For example, the requirement to switch short data blocks on a multiaccess, single hop, wavelength division optical channel can be satisfied by using extremely fast tunable lasers/filters (subnanosecond tuning time), which are still in the experimental stage. Alternatively, the same requirement can be met by using slower devices (microsecond tuning time) and by adopting novel channel access methodologies (e.g. transmitter pipelining and subframe tuning) and network architectures (e.g. multihopping). This talk will examine some of the system design alternatives that can be used to over-come the optical network bottlenecks. These alternatives will include pipelining, mutihopping and multifiber layouts. The tradeoffs between the use of advanced (costly) photonic technology and the implementation of novel system strategies will be addressed. These design tradeoffs will be illustrated with an example based on OPTIMIC, an optical network architecture that combines new network models and advanced device technologies. OPTIMIC ( OPTical Interconnect of MosaIC chips) is a high speed local and campus network for the interconnection of supercomputers and high speed peripherals, currently under development by UCLA, JPL and Aerospace under ARPA support.","PeriodicalId":285275,"journal":{"name":"The 8th IEEE Workshop on Computer Communications","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130498221","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}
