8.6 <strong>ABR</strong> Source End System and ERICA Parameters<br />

The source end system parameters of <strong>ABR</strong> are selected to maximize <strong>the</strong> respon-<br />

siveness and throughput. The values of source parameters are:<br />

TBE = 128, 512<br />

ICR = 10 Mbps<br />

ADTF = 0.5 sec<br />

CDF (XDF) = 0.5, CRM (Xrm) = TBE/Nrm<br />

PCR = 155.52 Mbps, MCR =0,RIF (AIR) = 1<br />

Nrm = 32, Mrm = 2, RDF = 1/512,<br />

Trm = 100 ms, TCR =10c/s<br />

The ERICA switch algorithm parameters are chosen as follows. The target uti-<br />

lization parameter is chosen to be 90%. The overload and <strong>ABR</strong> capacity are measured<br />

at <strong>the</strong> switch over an <strong>in</strong>terval of 100 cells or 1 ms (whichever is smaller). The bu er<br />

size at <strong>the</strong> bottleneck l<strong>in</strong>k is sized as TBE n 1, 2, or 4, where n is <strong>the</strong> number<br />

of <strong>ABR</strong> sources.<br />

8.7 The n Source + VBR Con guration<br />

Figure 8.4 illustrates <strong>the</strong> general con guration we analyze, which we call \<strong>the</strong><br />

n Source + VBR con guration." This con guration has a s<strong>in</strong>gle bottleneck l<strong>in</strong>k<br />
