 ABSTRACT
 The demand for advanced information services is growing in terms of both
the
 number of users and the services to be supported.Voice and low-rate data
 services are insufficient for users in a world where high-speed World Wide
Web access is taken granted. The trend is toward global information networks
 offering flexible multimedia information services to users on demand,
 anywhere, anytime. Potential services include video on demand, interactive
 video, fast Internet access, telemedicine, tele-education, and large file
 transfer. The need to support bandwidthintensive multimedia services places
 new and challenging demands on satellite systems and networks. Flexibility,
 efficiency, mobility, and the ability to guarantee end-to-end quality of
 service are at a premium.
