Abstract

Chapter 6 has addressed the throughput of circuit switched networks. We consider packet switched networks in this chapter and determine the impact of network topology on throughput. The introduction of a new element—delay—in packet switched networks introduces some interesting opportunities and challenges in defining throughput that the customer would be willing to pay for. This is the subject of discussion in this chapter.
