Abstract :
This paper studies the overlayed virtual network approach to IP/ATM integration which closely resembles the ITU-T direct approach. Access of IP packets is controlled by a selective windowing mechanism to maximize the network power. New performance results for AAL3/4 and AAL5 protocols are shown. Performance is compared for the Poisson and self-similar IP packet traffic generation processes
