Abstract
A relationship between the mean number of 'empty ' cells per scheduled cycle of the connection server and the cell rate bandwidth in cells-per-second that may be allowed to enter a virtual path that is already considered to be 'full', based on the sum of the sustainable cell rates of its existing component connections, is used as the basis of CAC. Virtual connections may be admitted to a “full” virtual path if the cell rate of the requested connection is less than the allowable cell rate statistically determined from the mean number of “empty” cell timeslots in the path available for use by high-priority cells.
