A roadmap of fuzzy logic in ATM, mobile and active networks: challenges of the new century

摘要

ATM networking technology was conceived 20 years ago, and installations will reach their peak the next 10 years. Active networks will be the technology which will follow the ATM. In this article, we address the most important issues regarding recent advances and future perspectives in ATM, including IP/ATM integration, Active Networks, MobileActive Networks and the impact of fuzzy technology in solving the important problems of the above future networking technologies. In the new century it is imperative that we shift from a technology to an application (needs of consumers) focus, where ubiquitous and invisible (context-aware) computing will be a reality.
