Nowadays, an in-depth understanding of the Internet traffic profile is indispensable. Many
network monitoring applications claim the connection-oriented analysis. However, many …

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) uses a loss-based algorithm to estimate whether the
network is congested or not. The main difficulty for this algorithm is to distinguish spurious …

The inherent support in routers (SNMP counters or NetFlow) is not sufficient to diagnose
performance problems in IP networks, especially for flow-specific problems and hence, the …

Network researchers have traditionally fo-cused on monitoring, measuring, and
characterizing traffic in the network to gain insight into building critical network components …

We have proposed the concept of inline network measurement, which involves the concept
of" plugging''unactive bandwidth measurement into an active TCP connection. Mechanisms …

Streaming network traffic measurement and analysis is critical for detecting and preventing
any real-time anomalies in the network. The high speeds and complexity of today's …

The interest in traffic measurement and analysis has increased tremendously and provides
us with new ways to understand, operate and improve network performance. The …

Per-flow traffic measurement, which is to count the number of packets for each active flow
during a certain measurement period, has many applications in traffic engineering …

When developing networking systems such as firewalls, routers, and intrusion detection
systems, one faces a striking gap between the ease with which one can often describe a …

Accurate and real-time network measurements are becoming increasingly critical for a large
variety of management tasks like accounting, bandwidth provisioning and security analysis …
