Identifying elephant flows is very important in developing effective and efficient traffic
engineering schemes. In addition, obtaining the statistics of these flows is also very useful …

Elephant flows (elephants) refer to the sequences of packets that contribute only 10% of the
total volume but consume over 90% of the network bandwidth. They often cause network …

The Internet is one of the largest and most complex communication and information
exchange networks ever created. Therefore, its dynamics and traffic unsurprisingly take on a …

Data center networks typically have many paths connecting each host pair to achieve high
bisection bandwidth for arbitrary communication patterns. Fully utilizing the bisection …

A load balancing system may include a switch coupled with a plurality of servers and a
