Recently in the telecommunication industries, BISDN (broadband  integrated services digital network) has received considerable  attention since it can provide a common interface for future  communication needs including video, data, and speech. Since  information in BISDN is transported by means of dicsrete units of  53-octet ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) cells, interests in  discrete-time systems have increased. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eDiscrete-Time Models for Communication Systems Including ATM\u003c\/em\u003e  provides a general framework for queueing analyses of dicrete-time  systems. After a brief look at past studies of discrete-time systems,  a detailed description and analysis are presented for a generic  discrete-time model with a single server, arbitrary service times and  independent arrivals. The book then follows a less stringent approach  and focuses more on the average statistics and on different queueing  disciplines. Conventional first-in-out and last-in-first-out  disciplines are discussed in terms of the average statistics. Systems  with multiple classes of messages without class-dependent priorities  are considered to establish a discrete-time conservation law. Multiple  classes with priorities are also considered to derive performance  measures of priority scheduling disciplines. Finally, a multi-queue  system with cyclic service is analyzed in the context of round-robin  service ordering. \u003cbr\u003e  This is followed by analyses of discrete-time queueing systems with  `more complicate' input and output processes. Specifically,  single-server systems are investigated whereby either the arrivals or  the server is subject to random interruptions. Results are mainly  obtained in terms of generating functions and mean values of the  principal performance measures. The influence of the nature of the  arrival correlation and the server interruptionson the queueing  behavior is discussed. Finally, the book explores queueing models  directly associated with ATM switches and multiplexers. \u003cbr\u003e  This book is a valuable reference and may be used as a text for and  advanced course on the subject. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1992-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792392927\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-3130-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 200\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578389061772,"sku":"9780792392927","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792392927.jpg?v=1771510973","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792392927","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
