Internet traffic burstiness allows for statistical multiplexing gain in the available bandwidth of an ATM link. However, a dynamic allocation bandwidth assignment (ABR) has to be performed. In this paper we evaluate the real advantages of ABR versus CBR for Internet service provisioning. We consider performance parameters such as connection setup delay and active waiting time due to flow control and show that CBR schemes can be a good alternative for Internet service provisioning over ATM networks.
