Abstract :
In this paper, an architectural design and implementation of a multimedia conference system over FDDI networks is presented. In this development process, various critical design issues are considered and approaches are proposed to optimize the architectural design to yield acceptable performance. The issues include 1) multicasting capability, 2) design of high speed transport protocol, and 3) delay and jitters performance of FDDI synchronous service
