1. Consider the use of timed token protocol (IEEE 802.4) in the following
situation. We have four nodes in the system. The real time requirement is
that node Ni be able to transmit up to bi bits over each period of duration pi
milliseconds, where bi and pi are given in the table below.
Node bi pi
N1 IK 10,000
N2 4K 50,000
N3 16 K 90,000
N4 16 K 90,000
Choose suitable Target Token rotation Time (TTRT) and obtain suitable
values of fi (total number of bits that can be transmitted by node Ni over
every cycle). Assume that the propagation time is negligible compared to
TTRT and that the system bandwidth is 1 mbps.
2. In a real time packet switched network, explain the roles of a traffic police
and a traffic shaper, explain one popular traffic shaping and one traffic
policing techniques.
