Multiple-Availability-Level ATM Network Architecture: Because of their high flexibility, ATM networks have the potential to achieve two objectives: Switch cost reduction and multi-level network availability. For that purpose, this article proposes to use Virtual Circuit (VC) route self-healing schemes to achieve a multiple-availability-level ATM network
