Delay-Throughput Performance Evaluator for Distributed Systems. TDMA and TokenRing Schemes (Version 1)

摘要

This work involves the development of a delay-Throughput performance evaluatorfor distributed systems. Currently planned and future Navy distributed integrated computer and communications systems involve the extensive use of medium access control procedures for sharing distributed communications, processing and computing resources among distributed stations. This work contributes to the development of methods and tools for carrying out modeling performance evaluation, analysis and design of such systems. The principal area of work for this effort involves research and development of delay-throughput performance evaluation tools for distributed communications and computer multiple-access schemes. This development involves the modeling and analysis of generic TDMA and token-ring type medium access control architectures that are of key importance to present and future Navy distributed systems.
