TY - JOUR T1 - ATM cell delay and loss for best-effort TCP in the presence of isochronous traffic. JF - IEEE Journal on selected areas in communications A1 - Tipper, C.B LA - English UL - https://tuklas.up.edu.ph/Record/UP-99796217609332612 AB - This paper reports the findings of a simulation study of the queueing behavior of ?best-effort? traffic in the presence of constant bit-rate and variable bit-rate isochronous traffic. In this study, best-effort traffic refers to ATM cells that support communications between host end systems executing various applications and exchanging information using TCP/IP. The performance measures considered are TCP cell loss, TCP packet loss, mean cell queueing delay, and mean cell queue length. Our simulation results show that, under certain conditions, best-effort TCP traffic may experience as much as 2% cell loss. Our results also show that the probability of cell and packet loss decreases logarithmically with increased buffer size KW - ATM cell delay. KW - ATM cell loss. KW - TCP cell loss.
