Abstract/Summary:
The proliferation of the high-speed networks is expected to occur in the near future. However, the available implementations of gateways are not able to deal with these high data rates and become the bottleneck of the communication systems. Therefore, we need a high-speed gateway that can interconnect various kinds of high-speed networks.; The Multiprocessor High-bandwidth Communication Gateway based on a Protocol Processor Pool Architecture which we have named HIPAMG and satisfies the requirements of the high-speed networks is proposed in this dissertation. HIPAMG connects FDDI stations and BISDN stations in multi-media environment. A new design concept called Protocol Processor Pool Architecture is proposed and implemented in the HIPAMG. After completing the gateway design, the performance of the gateway is simulated using the OPNET graphic simulator and the design parameters are tuned to optimize the gateway design.
