Summary
Summary
Aiming to offer an understanding of what the new generation of high-speed switches can and cannot deliver, this work offers an evaluation of ATM technology. It discusses the ATM standard, examines high-speed network challenges, presents the first generation of switching systems currently available as commercial products, addresses unfulfilled switching requirements and poses possible approaches for switch design in the future.
