  • Abstract
    The nature of the traffic offered to a token passing LAN is shown to be a significant factor affecting the mean delay against traffic throughput performance. A novel asymmetric traffic model with an exponential load distribution is presented, and its effects on the LAN performance are investigated using computer simulation.
