21.   The San Francisco and Chicago sites are based on a data communications technology called asynchronous transfer mode, or ATM.

22.   The venture specializes in asynchronous transfer mode, frame relay and Internet protocol technologies.

23.   They make gadgets, with odd-sounding names such as asynchronous transfer mode or ATM, that help link computers together at high speeds.

24.   ATM is an abbreviation of asynchronous transfer mode, an international standardized transmission technique.

25.   Implementation of asynchronous transfer mode technology is expected to be finished next year in order to support broadband ISDN services.

26.   It said the technology, new for China, is for the broad-band integrated services digital network, with asynchronous transfer mode switches.

27.   The two announced a strategic partnership last year for developing applications that can move information over a high-speed delivery technology called ATM, or asynchronous transfer mode.

28.   Xylan provides high-bandwidth switching systems that enhance the performance of local area networks and facilitates migration to next-generation technologies such as the asynchronous transfer mode.

29.   The use of asynchronous transfer equipment and synchronous optical fiber network would offer quicker access to the World Wide Web, they added.
