Summary:
Over the past ten years, Client/Server computing has had a powerful impact on the way businesses deal with information technology. Client/Server computing has enhanced user's productivity, revolutionized computer networking, and restructured the computer industry. Today, another new technology is poised to impact business computing in an equally dramatic way. Networked Multimedia computer applications will significantly affect users and network managers and have a tremendous impact on computing and network infrastructures. This thesis explores the areas of high speed networking for multimedia applications. Focusing primarily on the FDDI technology we model a high speed FDDI multimedia LAN model and developed typical multimedia traffic models to aid in case study of the FDDI HSMM-LAN networks. FFOL, the Follow On Standards currently in the ANSI standards committee, discuss Network Architectures that include a gigabit backbone network for FDDI and FDDI II networks, making them an attractive and cost effective option to the customer.
