Virtual Path Management Framework with Dynamic Routing and Rerouting Schemes in Hierarchical ATM Network

摘要

Since each ATM virtual path (VP) contains bundles of virtual channels (VCs), a VP layer network can serve as a server layer and each VC layer network can be a client layer. Therefore the effective VC service provisioning depends completely on the reliability of the VP layer network. We pro- pose the ATM virtual path (VP) management framework with dynamic routing and rerouting schemes in a hierarchical trans- port network.
