ATM is reaching maturity just in time to meet the demands of this emerging generation of computing equipment. This tutorial focuses on the design and application of ATM networks in the campus computing environment. We review the applications that are driving the development of these networks and the components needed to construct useful and cost effective systems. In this tutorial we analyse various design options with respect to performance and implementation complexity and discuss how ATM can best be used to support end-user applications. The Symposium will be held over three days from 15-17th of July 1992 at Monash University, Clayton, Victoria.
