Abstract :
This paper concerns the design and development of an available bit rate (ABR) server as part of an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch. The overall implementation is based on a shared medium switching architecture, a time division multiplexed (TDM) bus, providing both modularity and high reliability. The paper focuses on hardware architecture of the entire system and presents its basic software architecture
