Broadband, Multimedia Networks and the B‐ISDN

Martin P. Clark

Abstract

Part 4 (chapters 25 & 26) describes broadband and multimedia networks – ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) and the B-ISDN (Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network). Chapter 25: The emergence of ‘multimedia’ computers and software which use all sorts of different audio, data, image and video signals simultaneously has heralded a new generation of computers and computer ‘applications’ and spurred the need to develop and deploy a new universal technology for telecommunications. The broadband-ISDN (B-ISDN) is intended to be this universal technology. The network architecture of B-ISDN is explained in this chapter
