In a packet network, the terms bandwidth and throughput often characterize the amount of
data that the network can transfer per unit of time. Bandwidth estimation is of interest to users …

This paper presents pathChirp, a new active probing tool for estimating the available
bandwidth on a communication network path. Based on the concept of “self-induced …

Available bandwidth estimation is useful for route selection in overlay networks, QoS
verification, and traffic engineering. Recent years have seen a surge in interest in available …

The available bandwidth (avail-bw) in a network path is of major importance in congestion
control, streaming applications, quality-of-service verification, server selection, and overlay …

The available bandwidth (avail-bw) in a network path is of major importance in congestion
control, streaming applications, QoS verification, server selection, and overlay networks. We …

The complexity and richness of telecommunications traffic is such that one may despair to
find any regularity or explanatory principles. Nonetheless, the discovery of scaling behavior …

There has been much work on developing techniques for estimating the capacity and the
available bandwidth of network paths based on end-point measurements. The focus has …

The area of available bandwidth (avail-bw) estimation has attracted significant interest
recently, with several estimation techniques and tools developed during the last 2-3 years …

Service prioritization among different traffic classes is an important goal for the future
Internet. Conventional approaches to solving this problem consider the existing best-effort …
