Link access blocking in very large multi-media networks
Jean‐François Labourdette, George W. Hart · 1990
This paper is concerned with performance models and approximations for very large, multi-media networks. Blocking is the traditional performance measure in circuit-switched networks, and will remain as such in multi-rate circuit-switched networks. It is also considered a likely performance measure candidate for resource management and dimensioning in broadband fast packet-switched networks, operated under virtual circuit mode.
