This paper describes a simulation study of a class of carrier sense multiaccess buses with collision detection, similar to the Xerox Ethernet. The driving loads for the network models are similar to ones that might be found in an office information system which integrates data and voice communication. Various backoff algorithms are considered, to investigate the suitability of the approach and to suggest an appropriate family of architectures for communication within this medium.
