Appendixes. List of acronyms. Index. Numerous figures in text. TECHNICAL. ".ATM switches are much more than a switching fabric that transfers cells from its inputs to its outputs. This book examines ATM switches as a SYSTEM in which the fabric is one component containing control and management functions. Surprisingly the relationship between ATM switching and network control has not been examined previously in depth and we believe this has limited the understanding in both areas. The objective of this monograph is to relate the two areas in a common theoretical framework by developing a general ATM switching system model. The switch model is functional and not specific to any implementation. It is intended to facilitate the study of the impact of signaling operations and maintenance network management and traffic control in the switching system design and performance.
