As the grmuth of applicatioiis aiid services otiei' Internet keeps increasing, the deployment of Layzr-3 switching using ATM approach in wide area broadband Internet backbones has been U major solution to meet the traflic deninnd. Although the perfoiniance degvodation fo,r TCP/IP oz:er ATM during congestion can be reduced if switch buffer nianagemtnt techn.iyuts such UA Early Packet Discurdzny (EPD) and Partiol Packet Disco,rding(PPD) ~chrines arc eniployed, the iniproiiciiitnts alr often not significant. 112 this paper. we introduce the tist of ACIi Spacing schemr to fiirthei. improct- th.e performance of TCP/IP OZJW -4Tht W.4Ks.
