Abstract
The DQDB standard accepted by the IEEE Standards Board in 1990 is incomplete in the sense that it does not specify details of isochronous service and connection oriented data service. In this paper, we discuss the performance of a protocol which has been studied in all meetings of IEEE 802.6 since 1991. The Guaranteed Bandwidth (GBW) protocol for Connection Oriented Data Service turns out to be a very promising candidate for variable bit rate communication with predictable bandwidth requirements.
