Asynchronous Networks and Erlang Formulas

The paper addresses the idea of utilization of Erlang formulas in asynchronous ATM and IP networks. Based on the common properties of synchronous and asynchronous networks we have proposed the utilization of Erlang formulas not only for synchronous networks, but also for asynchronous networks. It is possible to describe traffic in asynchronous networks by calculation of following parameters – loss, link utilization and bandwidth. We present some simulation results from Matlab.
