Abstract
This study is motivated by control issues in broadband integrated services digital networks (B-ISDN), where information transport is effected by means of the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). As an initial step in assessing the performance of an overall B-ISDN/ATM congestion control framework, the throughput-burstiness filter (TBF) of the bandwidth management network congestion control capability is modeled and analyzed. The TBF is part of a distributed core control mechanism providing protection to, and fair allocation of, shared network resources. Through this model and analysis, the combinations of traffic throughput and burstiness that the TBF allows can be quantified.Keywords
