css和atm,ATCSS, a simulator for a new ATM traffic control system

摘要：

This paper presents an ATM Traffic Control System Simulator (ATCSS) that can be used to evaluate a new traffic control system for large public Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switching system. In general, the traffic control can be implemented through the following two functions, cell scheduling and bandwidth reallocation. The former determines the input sequence of cells to guarantee allocated rates and contracted QoS such as Cell Loss Ratio (CLR) for each Virtual Channel Connection (VCC), while the latter adjusts and reallocates bandwidths for Available Bit Rate (ABR) services dynamically to achieve maximum utilization of ATM network. We introduce a Self-Clocked Fair Queuing (SCFQ) based cell scheduling algorithm and a time stamp based ABR rate reallocation algorithm which are initially proposed by Electronics and Telecommunication Research Institute (ETRI). We carry out some simulation tests using the ATCSS to show practical uses of the simulator. Results of some simulation tests are also reported.
