Multimedia services, teleconferencing, high-performance visualization and open-system
connectivity are expected to accelerate the demand for high-speed and high-performance …

Describes a new technique, based on exchanging control signals between neighboring
nodes, for constructing a stable and fault-tolerant global clock in a distributed system with an …

This work presents a coherent system solution for combining with no loss due to congestion,
on one hand, bursty traffic with unpredictable pattern in time and space, and on the other …

This paper shows how to design an ATM network, for real-time traffic, such that under full
network load (i) the maximum delay of a low-rate voice connection is minimized,(ii) the delay …

This paper presents a new design methodology and tools to construct a packet switched
network with bursty data sources. This network design combines two important properties for …

The MetaNet is a scalable local area network (LAN) architecture with an arbitrary topology
and a switch at each node (ie, a switch based LAN). Its design provides on one hand a …

The paper presents a new design methodology and tools to construct a switch-based LAN
with (i) scalable throughput,(ii) no loss due to congestion, and (iii) two routing modes: FIFO …

This paper presents fault-tolerant protocols for fast packet switch networks withconvergence
routing. The objective is to provide fast reconfiguration and continuous host-to-host …

The problem solved in this work is how multiple nodes in a network with an arbitrary
topology can broadcast concurrently, in an asynchronous manner, to all other nodes …

Typically, bandwidth reservation is not made for data applications. Therefore, the only way to
provide minimum bandwidth guarantees to such an application is by using a fairness …
