A performance analysis scheme for intelligent wireless ATM networks

摘要

An intelligent network (IN) is a concept characterized by the distribution of network intelligence and capabilities wherever required within a telecommunications network. It is considered as a platform defining an environment that is rich in network capabilities and service functionality. IN technique can be applied to a variety of telecommunication networks including the public switched network, mobile network, and the integrated services digital networks. The introduction of intelligent services in ATM networks appears to be an attractive subject for researchers and service providers. In this paper, we analyse and evaluate the performance of wireless ATM network equipped with intelligent services. The mathematical analysis uses the concept of virtual resource, while the simulation evaluation is based on an object-oriented simulation approach using Java. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
