| 6002670 | Optimization and recovery techniques in IMA networks In ATM networks, digital data in ATM cells are sent to a destination node over a connection made up of more than one transmission link in round robin fashion. This is called inverse multiplexing. Suitable transmission links are selected among a plurality ... | 12/14/1999 |
| 5991292 | Network access in multi-service environment In current voice telephony, CATV, and wireless networks, traffic is channelized for both access and transport. This channelization is wasteful of resources where multiple services have varying demands for bandwidth and holding times, or a service generate... | 11/23/1999 |
| 5991268 | Flow control mechanism of ABR traffic in ATM networks An ATM network carries several categories of services, each having its own traffic characteristics and performance requirements. The ABR (available bit rate) service category is the only existing one suited for high-reliability data communications, such a... | 11/23/1999 |

Several FTP indices may be mapped into one or more FTP classes by a network and different networks may map differently FTP indices to... | 11/16/1999 |
| 5978376 | Providing access to a distributed data processing system A plurality of end devices are coupled via a shared port to an asynchronous network in which traffic is carried in cells. A cell multiplexer is disposed between the devices and the port and is adapted to multiplex cells from the devices to the port in the... | 11/02/1999 |
