Abstract :
A packet-switching network is considered as a tandem system of store-and-forward links. In this paper, it is shown that the maximum input traffic, with finite intermediate buffer size, is very sensitive to the distribution of the transmission time. The performance of two different protocols is compared under various distributions of transmission times.
