In this paper, an ATM cell monitor/control algorithm is proposed to enhance the efficiency of bandwidth management and statistical multiplexing for various types of cell traffics. This algorithm is based on the usage parameter control and bandwidth allocations. The traffic is monitored and controlled by counters, lookup table and cell control unit to reduce the burden of the traffic overload. And for the bandwidth management the entire bandwidth is separated into two classes : the basic bandwidth is allocated to each type of traffic and the shared bandwidth may be used when more bandwidth is required due to the burst. The network resources can be allocated to more virtual connections accordingly.
