Economic resource sharing in ATM network

Abstract

Based on the optimization theory and LaGrange multipliers concept, a novel strategy for "fair" and "economic" resource sharing in an ATM network is proposed in the paper. The main essence of proposed strategy is to confirm the minimal cost waste, that is the minimal cell loss in the ATM network, under the various negotiated Quality of Services (QoS). By doing so, consumers (senders of services) can obtain a fair share of the resources under their QoS requirements and the provider of broadband ISDN services will possess an economic operation. The tactics are realized by using the MatLab tool in a workstation.
