Hi,

I am sending in the bibtex entries. I put in the references
that we have explicitly covered. Please point out any mistakes
in the entries or any missing references to me. I will update
the list.

Also, if you had seen to any other interesting references
recently on any of the related topics, please let me know too.

Comments on ATM summary

A couple areas were confusing to me:
Under 2, second bullet: "Multiple virtual paths make up a channel" but
   in the next bullet it says "Cells traverse the same path in a virtual
   channel so there's no need for packet resequencing and reassembly."
   Also, 5th bullet says that "The sequencing and reassembly layer reassembles
   frames."

   So I am confused about whether classical packet switching does or doesn't
   occur with ATM.  

Reorganize as follows:
1. Introduction - fine as it is
2. ATM - keep bullets 1-5
3. Advantages of ATM - bullets 6,7,8 from your section 2.
4. ATM switch - bullets 9 from your section 2.
  
	Add a figure of a sample ATM switch
5. Conlcusion - fine as it is

Add the citations for the 3 papers read in the class.  You can get the
bibtex from muthu.


Very nice job on the paper and the talks.  Thanks!
