Abstract

The paper discusses a control scheme for broadband switching systems consisting of a hybrid multilevel control network and a three-phase commit control protocol. The proposed architecture and protocol allow for fast connection setup in point-to-point connections while efficiently handling multicast and broadcast connections. The consistency of system status is maintained through the three-phase commit procedure. The optimal control configuration to minimize the connection setup service time is derived by using both analytical and simulation approaches
