Connection admission control(CAC), which decides whether or not to accept a new call request, is one of the most Important preventive congestion control techniques in asynchronous transfer mode(ATM) networks. To develop a practical CAC scheme, first we propose a "Modified Cell Loss Probability MP${\nu}"$, which is based on "Virtual Cell Loss Probability P${\nu}"$, taking into account mean burst duration of input traffic source and buffer size in ATM networks. MP${\nu}"$ computes more accurate cell loss probability than P${\nu}"$ without increasing computational complexity, since P${\nu}"$ is formulated simply form the maximum and the average cell rate of input traffic. P${\nu}"$ is overestimated as compared to the real cell loss probability when the mean burst duration is relatively small to the buffer capacity. Then, we Propose a CAC scheme, based on "Modified Virtual Bandwidth(MVB)" method, which may individualize the cell loss probabilities in heterogeneous traffic environments. For the proposed approach, we define the interference intensity to identify interferences between heterogeneous traffic sources and use it as well as MP${\nu}"$ to compute MVB. Our approach is well suitable for ATM networks since it provides high bandwidth utilization and guarantees simple and real time CAC computation for heterogeneous traffic environments.heterogeneous traffic environments.

Since First-Come-First-Served discipline makes it difficult to satisfy the diverse quality of scrvicc(QoS) requirements for each c-oonection, traffic isolation has been proposed for guaranteeing the desired QoS through explicit bandwidth allocation to each virtual connection(VC) in A TM networks. For this purpose, we propose a rate-controlled cell multiplexer using a simple "periodic token-based regulator" per- Vc. The proposed multiplexer realizes VC isolation, while still operating work'||'&'||'not;conservingly. We first discuss its major properties, and then examine its features with respect to the characteristics of the output traffic streams and the traffic isolation of individual VC's, by simulation.n.
