Abstract :
Advances in computing and other technologies have produced a significant and rapid increase in the demand for new communication services. The distributed multichannel manufacturing automation protocol (DMMAP) is a high speed LAN. It used the multichannel technique to aggrandize the network bandwidth, and used the distributed control policy instead of the centralized control of MMAP (multichannel manufacturing automation protocol). The authors discuss the DMMAP, how to manage many simultaneously received tokens, and how to decide which MAC frame should be transmitted first
