This book is the proceedings of a workshop which examined issues involved in the design and implementation of protocols for high-speed networks. The emphasis of the book is on protocol implementation, with a large number of papers addressing this important topic. Other topics addressed include evaluation of congestion/flow control techniques that have been proposed for high-speed networks, new routing techniques, and the investigation of protocols that are being designed to support high-speed networking at the transport layer and at the media-access-control layer of the Open Systems Interconnection network model.
