DTM emerges as a potential competitor for ATM wired.com Long Distance 2¢ a Minute Abstracted from the article.... Dynarc and Net Insight share the patents for Dynamic Transfer Mode, or DTM, originally developed by Ericsson Telecom and the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology. The technology was designed to integrate with the Internet's existing IP network. If it's adopted, the Internet could handle voice traffic as reliably as the public-telephone network and make video transmissions more like viewing television than old Super-8 home movies. DTM is a transport protocol that is similar in concept to Asynchronous Transfer Mode, or ATM, a transport protocol intended to switch and prioritize Internet traffic. Like ATM, DTM uses a set of specialized functions -- known collectively as Quality of Service (QOS) -- to guarantee that voice and video transmissions arrive at their destinations quickly. Unlike ATM, however, DTM doesn't require entirely new networking infrastructures to be built for carrying voice and video in addition to data. Frank
