Abstract :
Time-division-multiplexing (TDM) technique provides good granularity and response in high-speed networks. This paper presents the recent work of CCNR Lab in the study of TDM design and implementation in a star-based network. Node and network architectures are considered for the support of both the centralized and distributed algorithms. Performance evaluations have been carried out, and optimization is considered
