title = "A simulation study on the performance of integrated switching strategy for traffic management in ATM networks",
abstract = "Designing effective congestion control strategies for broadband networks is known to be difficult because of the variety of dynamic parameters involved such as link speeds, burstiness of the traffic, and the distances between traffic sources and switching nodes. We propose a traffic management scheme, which is insensitive to the propagation delay between the sources and switching nodes. We achieve this by combining connection admission control with a bandwidth allocation strategy. By seeking the cooperation of the available bit rate (ABR) sources (to limit their peak cell rate, PCR) at the time of admission of a variable bit rate (VBR) source to the network, the scheme eliminates the continuous congestion control. Our simulations show that the strategy is able to eliminate the ABR cell losses, achieves effective server and buffer utilization, and provides bounded delays to the VBR traffic (unlike the case without any controls).",
