Since the seminal study of Leland, Taqqu, Willinger, and Wilson, which set the groundwork
for considering self‐similarity an important notion in the understanding of network traffic …

The main objective in telecommunications network engineering is to have as many happy
users as possible. In other words, the network engineer has to resolve the trade-off between …

When network is undergoing problems such as congestion, scan attack, DDoS attack, etc.,
measurements are much more important than usual. In this case, traffic characteristics …

Although there is tremendous interest in designing improved networks for data centers, very
little is known about the network-level traffic characteristics of data centers today. In this …

Long-memory, or more generally fractal, processes are known to play an important role in
many scientific disciplines and applied fields such as physics, geophysics, hydrology …

This book serves as a standard reference, making this area accessible not only to
researchers in probability and statistics, but also to graduate students and practitioners. The …

Demonstrates that Ethernet LAN traffic is statistically self-similar, that none of the commonly
used traffic models is able to capture this fractal-like behavior, that such behavior has …

Network Traffic Matrix (TM) prediction is defined as the problem of estimating future network
traffic from the previous and achieved network traffic data. It is widely used in network …

Within the past few years, organizations in diverse industries have adopted MapReduce-
based systems for large-scale data processing. Along with these new users, important new …

Network arrivals are often modeled as Poisson processes for analytic simplicity, even
though a number of traffic studies have shown that packet interarrivals are not exponentially …
