....predictable, while a small end to end delay was required. A static value for buffer length was selected, ensuring that each voice sample actually received this fixed delay. This choice was influenced by the use of a low cost telephone device with a small amount of memory. The UNIVERSE system [Leslie84] operated in an environment where network conditions could often vary substantially during a telephone call, prompting the use of a dynamic scheme. In the Pandora system [King92] network delays are very predictable, but excesses can occur due to occasional re framing breaks in CFR operation. In ....

....two functions. First, it helps in locating remote services, and second, it transfers basic blocks between rings. This last property makes the bridge a data link level gateway. All this is transparent to the client process. These protocols have been applied successfully in the UNIVERSE Project [6, 7, 8] which combined several local area networks using satellite and X.25 wide area networks. Remote contact is established as follows. As usual, the process sends a NAMELOOKUP REQUEST to the name server. The name of the ring where the server resides is specified in the request. For now we assume that ....
