RSS atm forumModeling Traffic Management in ATM Networks With OPNET
White Paper Available Bit Rate (ABR) service in ATM has been designed to fairly distribute all unused capacity to data traffic and is specified in the ATM Forum's Traffic Management (TM4.0) standard. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is the new generation of... [18 Jul 2008]
Frame Relay Over MPLS (FRoMPLS): Today, Tomorrow and the Future
White Paper Similarities have even been drawn to the old arguments of connection-less (IP) vs.connection-oriented (frame relay, ATM) technologies with the two sides represented by the "Bell-heads" on one side and the "Net-heads" on the other. [18 Jul 2008]
Converging ATM/Frame Relay Over MPLS - Solving Control Plane Interworking
White Paper Concerted efforts by the MFA Forum and other standards bodies have given MPLS the capabilities that a service provider needs to build a reliable delivery platform for premium voice, video, and data services: agnostic access, standardized... [05 Jul 2008]
Performance Modeling of Differential Fair Buffer Allocation
White Paper The work discussed in this paper develops an analytical model to assess the performance of TCP over the Differential Fair Buffer Allocation implementation suggested by the ATM Forum. The Guaranteed Frame Rate (GFR) service is viewed as the most... [26 Dec 2007]
Parameter Tuning of Rate-Based Congestion Control Algorithms and Its Application to TCP Over ABR
White Paper In this paper, the rate-based congestion control algorithm that has been standardized in the ATM Forum is evaluated. Its behavior is analyzed by utilizing a first-order fluid approximation to provide control parameter tuning. [05 Dec 2007]
The Voice of the Future: Next Generation Networks
White Paper The term Next Generation Networks is seemingly very broad indeed. Almost any development in networking could potentially be placed under this banner. In fact, the definition used by ETSIs NGN Starter Group places the emphasis on providing... [02 Jul 2007]
UK firms named tech pioneers
News The firms were four of 36 companies chosen for their excellence in health, energy, photographic and computer technology by the World Economic Forum (WEF). One of the companies chosen was MobileATM, which sells mobile phone ATM services to 20 banks. [05 Dec 2005]
Conformity to Standards
White Paper Standards are followed in order of precedence when applicable and as established by the various domestic and international organizations including the ATM Forum, ANSI, Bellcore, ITU-TSS, and other industry standards. [30 Aug 2005]
Cisco - Understanding the Available Bit Rate (ABR) Service Category for ATM VCs
White Paper In this paper, the ATM Forum publishes multi-vendor recommendations to further the use of ATM technology. The Traffic Management Specification Version 4.0 defines five ATM service categories that describe both the traffic transmitted by users onto... [06 Oct 2004]
Voice over ATM
White Paper At the ATM Forum meeting in the beginning of February, members outlined plans to make ATM the technology of choice for transporting IP traffic over WANs. The forum's latest efforts include defining new methods for running IP data, video and voice... [24 Feb 2004]
MHz vs. Mbps for 155 ATM over UTP
White Paper There has been some confusion recently regarding the new ATM Forum PMD (Physical Medium Dependent) specification for supporting 155 Mbps ATM over twisted pair cabling. This article is intended to explain the relationship between the modulation... [24 Feb 2004]
Frame Relay/ATM PVC Service Interworking Implementation Agreement FRF. 8.1
White Paper Except as noted, these agreements will form the basis of conformance test suites produced by the Frame Relay Forum and the ATM Forum. This document is an implementation agreement on Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) service interworking between... [24 Feb 2004]
ATM Signalling Testing Pitfalls
White Paper It is part of the ATM Forum UNI 3.0 and above specifications. ATM signalling is a high-level protocol which allows ATM connections to be dynamically set-up and cleared. Simply stated, an ATM network without signalling capabilities is like a phone... [24 Feb 2004]
ATM Testing: Beyond the Cell Level
White Paper The ATM Forum has defined many different physical interfaces for ATM, supporting a variety of speeds (from 1.5 Mbps up to 25, 43 and 155 Mbps), and carrying media (optical fibers, coaxial cable and twisted-pair). [24 Feb 2004]
FLOWmaster Flow Control
White Paper For data applications, the ATM Forum has defined a class of service named Available Bit Rate (ABR). ABR service is envisioned to provide LAN-like performance, which has the following properties: All of the unused link bandwidth is available to all... [24 Feb 2004]
