网络的核心──千兆以太网还是ATM?

Is Kemel of Network Gbps or ATM?

本文就山西省电力公司调度综合大楼计算机网络系统招标过程中所遇到的技术选择，结合两种技术各自的优、缺点及各自适合选用的范围提出：千兆以太网技术、ATM交换技术均是一种高速发展的技术，以太网技术优势在于可以提供统一的数据应用平台：ATM交换技术可以提供统一的网络平台。山西省电力公司调度综合大楼计算机网络系统近期网络建设两种技术均可满足，千兆以太网技术从技术演化过程看，更适合调度综合大楼计算机网络。

According to the technology comparison between Gbps (Gigabit Ethemet ) and ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) during the bidding invitstion of computer network system for lntegrated Dispatching Building of Shanxi Electric Power Company, it is shown that both Gbps and ATM are rapid developing techniques, but Gbps is superivor to providing uniform data application platform while ATM is uniform network platform. Although the requirement for this two kinds of techniques can be met in the nettvork construction for Integrated Dispatching Building of Shanxi Electric Power Company, Gbps is more suitable from the viewpoint for technology development.
