An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) traffic control framework is based on an integrated usage parameter control (UPC) approach which approach provides, a unified and scalable solution to the issue of quality-of-services (QOS) levels over, a range of anticipated services in ATM based networks. The approach is consistent, with emerging ATM Forum and CCITT standards. Additionally a UPC-based, call and burst admission control providing the desired QOS over periods of network overload by call/burst admission control and traffic shaping of source stream, preferably uses a dual leaky bucket.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 19, 1994 and granted December 21, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 19, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 19, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
