The modeling and analysis of computer communications networks give rise to a variety of
interesting statistical problems. This chapter focuses on network tomography, a term used to …

Network monitoring and diagnosis are key to improving network performance. The
difficulties of performance monitoring lie in today's fast growing Internet, accompanied by …

The statistical problem for network tomography is to infer the distribution of X, with mutually
independent components, from a measurement model Y= AX, where A is a given binary …

The origin-destination (OD) traffic matrix of a computer network is useful for solving problems
in design, routing, configuration debugging, monitoring, and pricing. Directly measuring this …

The problem of estimating the node-to-node traffic intensity from repeated measurements of
traffic on the links of a network is formulated and discussed under Poisson assumptions and …

We investigate the problem of inferring the packet loss characteristics of Internet links using
server-based measurements. Unlike much of existing work on network tomography that is …

In network performance tomography, characteristics of the network interior, such as link loss
and packet latency, are inferred from correlated end-to-end measurements. Most work to …

In this paper we consider the problem of inferring link-level loss rates from end-to-end
multicast measurements taken from a collection of trees. We give conditions under which …
