Description: A major problem faced by network engineers today is how to take better advantage of ATM technology for their transport network planning. This new book focuses on methods of network design to ensure proper network function under stress (i.e. congestion and/or failure) and will help network planners design and evolve cost-effective networks. ATM Transport and Network Integrity discusses the most efficient methods of support for broadband service and control transport in high-speed transport networks, network services, and transport architectures and control and management. The differences between ATM and STM transport and how these differences affect transport network planning and engineering are also covered in detail.
