Load control in atm networks

This paper considers preventive load control in ATM networks. A one link performance evaluation based on on/off traffic sources is carried out. Approximative models are derived, and a specific admission control algorithm based on one of the models is presented and the obtained transfer efficiency is derived. A Flow Enforcement function to supervise each connection is suggested and the correspondence between modelling parameters, flow enforcement parameters and parameters used by the admission control algorithm is considered.
