| Abstract(in English) | Cell-spacing is a known method of policing the peak cell rate of a virtual Channel (VC) in an ATM network, by enforcing a minimum spacing between any two successive cells belonging to a VC. The switch processor we use is equipped with a fixed number of hardware timers. Each timer, driven by the clock, interrupts the switch processor when its count reaches 0. Since there may be substantially more VCs than timers, a single timer need to monitor several VCs. The main problem we address is how to match the timer periods to the channel spacing periods within a prescribed tolerance in a dynamic situation where channels are set up and released any time. Since this problem is NP-hard, we propose several heuristics as well as a new scheme of using basic timer periods to cover entire range of channel periods. |
