The traffic matrix of a telecommunications network is an essential input for any kind of
network design and capacity planning decision. In this paper we address a debate …

This paper describes a measurement infrastructure used to collect detailed IP traffic
measurements from an IP backbone. Usage, ie, bytes transmitted, is determined from raw …

Traffic measurement and analysis is nowadays a very critical task and requires complex and
high-cost traffic analysis equipment and infrastructure. The difficulty increases when high …

Network engineers and operators are faced with a number of challenges that arise in the
context of network monitoring and measurement. These include: i) how much information is …

Packet sampling is widely used in network monitoring. Sampled packet streams are often
used to determine flow-level statistics of network traffic. To date there is conflicting evidence …

We show that currently prevalent practices for network path measurements can produce
inaccurate inferences because of sampling biases. The inferred mean path latency can be …

The increasing complexity of the Internet demands continued improvements to
measurement techniques and data analysis methods to aid our understanding of network …
