Thesis
My thesis reports on an analytical study of the performances of the ATM-ABR service category in transporting TCP/IP flows over an ATM network. We explore the behaviour of a TCP connection over an ATM-ABR VC, in presence of exogenous non controlled traffic. Through a fluid analysis of the system, we study the interaction between the window-based end-to-end flow control TCP protocol and the rate-based flow control ABR mechanism, which is restricted to the ATM part of the network. The main aim of this study is to give performance evaluation formulae to model the behaviour of such a TCP over ABR connection.
