“…While much effort has been devoted to study the interaction of IP and ATM protocols [1][2][3][4], the interaction of ATM and transport layer protocols has not been extensively studied. The only exceptions are some studies about the performance of TCP (transmission control protocol) when used over ATM networks [5][6][7][8][9]. In this paper, we use a simulation approach to study the perfor-merous.…”

“…The only exceptions are some studies about the performance of TCP (Transmission Control Protocol [5]) when used over ATM networks [6,7,8,9,10]. Much more work is however necessary, at least in the case of applications where the performance seen by the end-user depends not only on the ATM and the AAL (ATM Adaptation Layer) layers, but it is also greatly influenced by the behavior of the transport protocols.…”

The performance of file transfer applications running over an ATM infrastructure investigated, taking into account both the impact of the ATM and AAL layer protocols and the features of the adopted transport protocol. Two transport protocols in particular are considered: TCP and XTP. The two transport protocols have quite different characteristics: while TCP is a window-based protocol, XTP is rate-based; while TCP contains algorithms for congestion avoidance, XTP includes no such feature. The performance investigation was performed by simulation, using CLASS, a simulation tool for the study of ATM networks at the cell and burst levels.

This paper studies the performance of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) over Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) when Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology is used in the local loop. TCP can experience performance degradation in this network architecture because of protocol conversion overhead and data losses due to transmission errors. In this papel; a simulation model is developed to simulate ADSL network components and noisy local loops. The simulation experiments are designed to study the impact of channel errors on TCP performance for unidirectional bulk data transfers, using both an independent error model and a burst error model. The primary performance metrics are cell loss ratio, packet loss ratio, and TCP effective throughput. The simulation results illustrate how TCP is affected by channel errors, as well as the impacts of the TCP MaximumSegment Size (MSS), switch buffer size, bandwidth asymmetry, and the percentage of noisy lines. 418 0-76954912-6100 $10.00 0 2000 IEEE
