An accurate and fast estimation of the available bandwidth in a network with varying cross-
traffic is a challenging task. The accepted probing tools, based on the fluid-flow model of a …

The dispersion that arises when packets traverse a network carries information that can
reveal relevant network characteristics. Using a fluid-flow model of a bottleneck link with first …

In order to answer how much bandwidth is available to an application from one end to
another in a network, state-of-the-art estimation techniques, based on active probing, inject …

Tools for estimating end-to-end available bandwidth (AB) send out a train of packets and
observe how inter-packet gaps change over a given network path. In ultra-high speed …

The information that short-lived TCP flows provide on bandwidth estimation may benefit
adaptive video streaming applications or may contribute towards the success of new TCP …

Available bandwidth is a vital parameter for understanding network status. A huge number of
tools have been proposed in literature, including general ones as well as tools specialized …

This paper analyzes the asymptotic behavior of packet-train probing over a multi-hop
network path P carrying arbitrarily routed bursty cross-traffic flows. We examine the statistical …

End-to-end available bandwidth estimation between Internet hosts is important to
understand network congestion and enhance the performance of Quality-of-Service (QoS) …

This paper proposes a novel framework to predict traffic flows' bandwidth ahead of time.
Modern network management systems share a common issue: the network situation evolves …
