Simulation Networking and Protocol Alternatives.

Abstract

In this paper, we focus on the implementation of an efficient local area network (LAN) which will be used to interconnect simulation training devices. In particular, we present preliminary efforts in modeling and analyzing the performance of three different network protocol access methods: CSMA/CD (carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection), Virtual Token-Passing Bus Access Protocols and Token-Ring Access. A detailed discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the above access protocols and anticipated results is also presented. (Author)
