摘要
A transfer line can be modeled as a linear system on maximal algebra. The model is also suitable to ATM and other rate-based communication systems. In respect to the rate-based speciality, a periodical input is considered as the system' s controller. Then some results in utilization, stability and congestion have been obtained. By use of them, we design an algorithm which integrates routing, resource allocation and flow control into a closed-loop architecture. It is adaptive and solves the prob-lem of congestion and uneven resource utilization. It also succeeds in controlling delay and delay jitter.
