Introduction To Atm Networking (mcgraw-hill Computer Communications Series)
Walter J. Goralski
Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network technology is hot! It has overcome the limitations of LAN and WAN technologies to solve problems that have plagued network designers from the start - from information transfer delays to error handling and congestion. Now this much-needed guide offers the first definitive treatment of ATM networking, covering everything from the fundamentals of building, using and maintaining ATM networks to advanced applications such as broadband data transfers, multimedia, and video. Written by a member of the ATM Forum, this is the ATM bible that telecommunications specialists, network designers, implementors, managers, planners, and support personnel have been waiting for.
Being part of the network of the future, ATM offers advanced applications like broadband data transfers, multimedia, and video. This is a technical introduction to ATM, its fundamentals (concepts, architecture and capabilities), usage, and maintenance. It focuses on the ATM Forum's standards and proposals. The overview includes the protocol stack, building ATM networks, and comparison of ATM networks with freame relay, SMDS, FDDI, and others.
