Title
Performance evaluation of Ethernet and HYPERbus local area networks using computer modeling
Abstract
The local area networks Ethernet and HYPERbus were simulated using the GPSS program language. Measurements of performance were network stability, messages transmitted per unit time, and the number of transmission attempts required per message. The simulations produced these results. Both networks were stable at the normal, 90 and 100 percent loads. At the 90 and 100 percent loads, Ethernet transmitted between 90.31 and 99.16 percent of the expected number of messages per unit time. HYPERbus under the same conditions transmitted 97.52 and 103.87 percent of the expected number of messages per unit time. Ethernet required up to 13 transmission attempts for some messages, with an average of 2.061 attempts per message. HYPERbus transmitted all of its messages on the first attempt.
