Data communication by using TCP/IP is one of important services on ATM networks. At one approach in traffic control of this service, the dedicated bandwidth for data transfer is not guaranteed and the feedback congestion control to prevent cell loss is performed in the congestion case. However, when a large quantity of data is transferred within a short period, this traffic control cannot be expected to achieve high efficiency. In this case, it is suitable that the dedicated bandwidth is guaranteed by FRP (Fast Reservation Protocol) before the data is transferred. This paper describes that FRP is superior to the feedback congestion control for large size data transmission. Next, it proposes a selectable traffic control which selects adaptively one of the feedback congestion control and FRP.

Recently actual use of the OSI standardized protocols has begun on client-server systems of LANs, and reduction of OSI protocol overheads in high-speed networks has become more important. We studied a parallel-processing architecture for Message Handling System (MHS), which requires a large amount of protocol processing and is expected to be used widely. We implemented a prototype MHS server with performance scalable to number of CPUs, by porting an existing MHS software with minimum modification. This paper reports on the parallel processing scheme, hardware and software architecture of the prototype, as well as evaluation of the scheme based on measurement and simulation.
