ATM - Asynchronous Transfer Mode¶

ATM was supposedly the future of telecom networking in the late 90ies/early 2000s. Its promise was to provide both circuit-switched as well as packet-switched services.

ATM was also supposed to become the basis for the German B-ISDN (broadband ISDN) services on which much literature can be found, but which never really saw widespread adoption.
