Abstract
A frugal resource management (RM) cell protocol for available bit rate (ABR) that matches the convergence time of the fastest known non-frugal control for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks is presented. Protocols that converge in a linear number of maximum roundtrip times require RM cell processing that is linear in the number of sessions at a switch. A second type of ABR traffic is the minimum cell rate (MCR) type, where every session can specify a minimum amount of bandwidth. The maximum fair allocation should then respect these MCR requests. In line with this, a first frugal RM cell protocol for MCR is given which achieves a quadratic convergence rate.
