....cell types, the table mechanism, and algorithms for allocation of bandwidth using the table. 1 Introduction AMNET, A Multimedia NETwork) is a local area network specifically aimed at bringing synchronous traffic, such as audio and video, to existing bus based workstations, at low cost [1, 2]. It is a unidirectional slotted ring testbed supporting investigation into various layers of potential multimedia LAN architecture. Destination stripping, or spatial reuse, is used to achieve a relatively high level of utilisation. Slot payloads are 54 byte cells made up of a 6 byte header and 48 ....

....The latter should prove beneficial when the project moves to the internetworking stage. The need to shape traffic entering an ATM network to avoid loss of cells through policing mechanisms is discussed in [11] In the initial implementation of AMNET, which is based on the design presented in [1, 2], the table mechanism will provide allocation of up to 50 of the ring bandwidth to synchronous traffic. Relaxation of the original constraints to allow up to 100 allocation to synchronous traffic is discussed in Section 3. 3 Synchronous Cells As stated in the Introduction, the ring controller ....
