Zusammenfassung:For reasons of economy and flexibility, BISDN ( Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network) is expected to replace existing application-oriented communication networks. ATM ( Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is a high-speed packet-switching technique that has emerged as the most promising technology for BISDN. Since early 1980s, a large number of architectures have been proposed for ATM switching. In this paper, we present a descriptive survey of ATM switch architectures, with emphasis on electronic space-division point-to-point switches.
