Title: A performance evaluation of connectionless overlay networks for ATM
Abstract: Introducing the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) causes a backwards compatibility problem, because ATM is connection-oriented whereas most of today's LANs are connectionless. Interconnection can be achieved by the use of connectionless servers (CLS). These servers together with a number of preestablished virtual circuits form a connectionless overlay network on top of ATM. In this paper we evaluate overlay networks that differ in number location and interconnection of CLSs by computation of mean cell delay and link load.
