TL;DR: An enhancement to the TRAF-NETSIM simulation model which provides users with the ability to simulate, with traffic streams exhibiting identical routeing patterns, driver-vehicle characteristics and other operational characteristics through a series of runs is described.
Abstract: This paper describes an enhancement to the TRAF-NETSIM simulation model which provides users with the ability to simulate, with traffic streams exhibiting identical routeing patterns, driver-vehicle characteristics and other operational characteristics through a series of runs. The paper describes the generation of stochastic (random) behaviour in the TRAF-NETSIM simulation model and discusses the need for generation of identical traffic streams

TL;DR: This paper aims at demonstrating that, at packet level, spatial and temporal invariants exist in the traffic of multiplayer network games, and confirms that the main traffic dynamics present properties that can be generalized, independently of the observation point and time.
Abstract: Even if Internet traffic analysis and characterization is a fertile research area, a lot of work still must be done to study and understand the traffic characteristics of new emerging multimedia applications. Among them, an interesting category is that of multiplayer network games. This paper aims at demonstrating that, at packet level, spatial and temporal invariants exist in the traffic of such applications. For this purpose, we study Counter-Strike, a popular client/server network game, comparing results from two different networks. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated by studying statistics of both packet size and inter-packet time. Results provide a view on packet-level game traffic and they confirm that the main traffic dynamics present properties that can be generalized, independently of the observation point and time.

TL;DR: A cycle accurate network simulator is developed for evaluating the performance of wormhole router based network by varying locality factor and offered load and it is shown that MoT based networks perform better than mesh and BFT under self-similar traffic.
Abstract: The actual traffic data collected on various applications specific on-chip networks exposed that the network traffic is self-similar in nature. In this work, modeling of self-similar traffic by aggregation of a large number of on-off Pareto sources has been discussed. We have developed a cycle accurate network simulator for evaluating the performance of wormhole router based network by varying locality factor and offered load. The performance of a Mesh-of-Tree (MoT) based network has been compared with mesh and Butterfly Fat Tree (BFT) based networks all having 32 cores. We have shown that MoT based networks perform better than mesh and BFT under self-similar traffic.

05 Nov 2001TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method and apparatus for monitoring traffic in telecommunications networks, in particular applied to the problem of recognizing real-time traffic such as voice traffic in packet- or cell-based networks through network traffic characterization.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring traffic in telecommunications networks, in particular applied to the problem of recognizing real-time traffic such as voice traffic in packet- or cell-based networks through network traffic characterization. The method classifies data traffic in a packet-based communications network conveying different classes of data through the monitoring of data traffic so as to identify sequences of data packets of unknown class transmitted between a source address and a destination address, subsequently measuring parameters of at least a significant part of the packet sequence and deriving from the measured parameters a probable classification of the data conveyed in the packet sequence.

TL;DR: In this paper, a model is developed to simulate the performance of the network based on the identified factors and the network is then designed based on results of the simulation in order to accommodate the expected future loads on the network.
Abstract: A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for network performance modeling Factors that influence a performance of a network are first identified Next, a model is developed to simulate the performance of the network based on the identified factors Operation of the network is then simulated with the model with the simulation being carried out using expected future loads The network is then designed based on results of the simulation in order to accommodate the expected future loads on the network
