Abstract
Continuous media (CM) traffic often requires more network throughput and more stringent delay bounds than conventional discrete media traffic. At the same time, transmission requirements of CM traffic can usually be estimated more accurately, both in terms of the resources required for transmission and the time at which the next transmission request will occur. A data transport service that uses these considerations to provide a richer and more efficient service to CM traffic than message-based transport services is discussed, and a prototype implementation is described. The service is evaluated via simulation experiments, which indicate that this service can often utilize network resources more efficiently for the transmission of CM traffic than message-based services Author(s) Ferrari, D.
