Abstract :
FDDI network is a network that can provide real time message delivery. It supports two classes of messages: synchronous class and asynchronous class. Guaranteeing deadlines of real time messages with FDDI synchronous mode has been studied extensively. However, most existing FDDI products support asynchronous message transmission only. We develop an analytic method for guaranteeing real time multimedia communication, based on our newly proved worst case timing properties of a synchronous mode of FDDI
