Abstract :
Issues arising in the implementation of receivers for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks, e.g., IEEE Std 802.6 MANs (metropolitan area networks) and broadband integrated services digital networks (B-ISDNs), are examined. These include buffering strategies to account for the burstiness and spatial randomness of buffering demands, preventing reassembly deadlock, and enforcing packet reception precedences. It is shown that transnode delays critically affect protocol performance and the complexity of implementing spatial reuse
