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); a technology commonly in place in networks all around the world today. Therefore, this paper focuses its attention on ATM. Dubbed “Modelling and Performance Studies of ATM Networks,” this research looks 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.” For this research, the authors have used the OPNET Modeler 14.0 Simulation software to create a network model that represents a real-life ATM network. By simulating an ATM network at AUT University New Zealand, the authors can change certain variables, and observe the effects the changes have on performance. As such, one of the impacts that will be explored is the effect that application segment length has on an ATM network. The second impact to be inspected is the impact of different traffic types on an ATM network. For example, Email traffic should theoretically affect an ATM network differently to the way that Voice traffic does. This way of thinking is what will be looked into further.
