The token grid network
Abstract
An overwhelming majority of local and metropolitan area network products (LANs and MANs) are based upon linear topologies such as buses and rings. Such networks are economical for high speed operation since the station interfaces are simple and require very little transit buffering. However because of their linear structure, the total throughput is restricted by the transmission rate of the media access channels. In the paper, a token grid …
