Abstract

We consider a token ring local area network (LAN) with an infinite number of nodes uniformly distributed around the ring. A token that circulates around the ring at a constant speed stops to “serve” fixed length packets that are generated by the nodes. We assume that the cumulative arrival process of packets constitutes a two-dimensional Poisson process. Given a fixed point on the ring, called the origin, we obtain the first-order statistics of the interarrival times of packets at the origin in the form of their Laplace—Stieltjes transform. © 1992 IEEE

Paper

The Use of Priorities on Token-Ring Networks for Multimedia Traffic To guarantee acceptable QoS for multimedia traffic, resource management is required to insure that sufficient capacity from all shared resources is allocated to the priority traffic. Once a multimedia session is accepted and resources have been allocated, the next task is to insure that the high priority multimedia traffic actually obtains the resources which have been allocated to it.
