To best utilize this data bus, we need to fully understand its per- formance. To evaluate its performance for both isochronous and asynchronous data transfers, we model the IEEE 1394b bus using Deterministic and Stochastic Pelri Nets （DSPNs）, and conduct simulations using TimeNET 4.0. Using the DSPNs model, we simulate both the average waiting times of isochronous and asynchronous packets. From the simulation results, we determine the factors that influence performance, such as throughput, size of packets, arrival rate of packets, number of isochronous channels, and bus configuration.展开更多
