Abstract

This report discusses the main functional characteristics of important communications protocols as well as current protocol processing products and research directions in order to determine whether the development of an optimized protocol processing microprocessor should be pursued. The IP, ATM, 802.11 MAC and SDH protocols are discussed with emphasis on the requirements these protocols set on protocol processing hardware.
