Abstract
Issues arising in the implementation of receivers for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks, e.g., IEEE 802.6 MAN's and B-ISDN, are examined. These include buffering strategies to account for the burstiness and spatial randomness of buffering demands, preventing reassembly deadlock, and enforcing packet reception precedences. Transnode delays critically affect protocol performance and the complexity of implementing spatial reuse.
