Abstract

The Advanced Network Technologies is a research that investigates the technology(s) behind today’s modern networks and network infrastructures one of these technologies being Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). Therefore, also focuses its attention on ATM. Dubbed “Modelling and Performance Studies of ATM Networks”; this research seeks to look at, and into, the impact of application segment length on the performance of an ATM network and the impact of traffic type data on the performance of an ATM network. To be able to examine an ATM network, we need to be able to simulate it somehow. This research, the authors have used the OPNET Modeler 14.0 simulation tool to create a network model that represents a real-life ATM network. And by actually simulating an ATM network at AUT University New Zealand, they can therefore change certain variables, and observe the effects the changes have on performance. As stated above, one of the impacts that will be explored is the effect that application segment length has on an ATM network. Thus, one variable that will be changed in our simulation is the segment length. This is the length of each packet segment that is sent through the network for a particular traffic type. The second impact to be inspected is the impact of different traffic types on an ATM network. For example, voice & video traffic should theoretically affect an ATM network
