Abstract
The authors introduce a control strategy for bandwidth management in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks. A two-level hierarchy is defined, where one level performs fixed class-selective call admission control strategies that are periodically dynamically coordinated by a higher-level bandwidth allocation controller. Each admission controller decides to accept or refuse an incoming call on the basis of a class-selective rule designed to maintain a certain quality of service. A decision is taken according to the virtual capacity share that is assigned to the various service classes by the allocation controller. Bandwidth shares are periodically recomputed online by means of the constrained minimization of a cost function that takes cell loss probability and refused traffic into account. The control structure, the strategies, and the optimization algorithm used are described as well as the assumptions underlying the choices made. Initial simulation results are reported.Keywords
