• The classical max-min policy has been suggested by the ATM Forum to support the available bit rate(ABR)service class.However, there are several drawbacks in adopting the max-min rate allocation policy.In particular, the max-min policy is not able to support the minimum cell rate(MCR)requirement and the peak cell rate(PCR)constraint for each ABR connection.Furthermore, the max-min policy does not offer flexible options for network providers wishing to establish a usage-based pricing criterion.In this paper, we present a generic weight-based rate allocation policy, which generalizes the classical max-min policy by supporting the MCR/PCR for each connection.Our rate allocation policy offers a flexible usage-based pricing strategy to network providers.A centralized algorithm is presented to compute network-wide bandwidth allocation to achieve this policy.Furthermore, a simple switch algorithm using ABR flow control protocol is developedd with tha aim of achieving our rate allocation policy in a distributed networking environment.The effectiveness of our distributed algorithm in a local area environment is substantiated by simulation results based on the benchmark network configurations suggested by the ATM Forum.
