TLDR
A novel design of a high speed packet switch capable of catering to voice and data traffic is described and the performance of the network and the packet switch is evaluated for various traffic characteristics through a simulation.
Abstract
This paper proposes a packet switched broadband integrated network, for multi-rate services such as voice and data. A novel design of a high speed packet switch capable of catering to voice and data traffic is described. Some sources of traffic bottle-necks are identified, and methods of clearing the bottle-necks through flow control techniques are discussed. The design and flow control parameters are obtained through simulation, and the results are presented. The performance of the network and the packet switch is evaluated for various traffic characteristics through a second simulation, and the results are briefly presented.

Experience with Speech Communication in Packet Networks

TL;DR: Large-scale packet speech multiplexing experiments could not be carried out on ARPANET or SATNET where the network link capacities severely restrict the number of speech users that can be accommodated, but experiments are currently being carried out using a wide-band satellite-based packet system designed to accommodate a sufficient number of simultaneous users to support realistic experiments in efficient statisticalmultiplexing.
