Abstract :
The results of a simulation study in which the real-time performances of a high-speed token ring network and a multiple-ring network were compared are described. The medium access protocols and the interconnection topologies of the multiple-ring network evaluated are discussed. The characteristic of the workload used in this simulation experiment is described. The simulation results are given
