Abstract :
Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a candidate technology to implement the high performance network in the data collection system for the ATLAS experiment. This work presents the results of modelling and simulation studies which aim at integrating the detailed organization of the detector read-out, the trigger requirements and the capabilities of ATM switching networks. The status of hardware development of small scale demonstrators is outlined
