Analysis of Traffic Measurements on a Wide Area ATM Network

There is a pressing need for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) traffic measurements to validate/verify a large number of simulation and analytical studies of ATM networks. In this paper, results from a measurement study of traffic on a wide area ATM network, the very High Speed Backbone Network Service (vBNS) network are reported. We illustrate how the traffic characteristics change as the traff...

Network Performance of Broadband Hosts: Measurements & Implications

With the rapid growth in the popularity of and the research interest in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, an interesting question is what the quality of network connectivity between peers in the “real world” is and what implications this has for applications. In this paper, we describe an effort called PeerMetric to directly measure P2P network performance from the vantage point of broadband-connecte...

Measurements of Wide Area Internet Traffic

Measurement and analysis of current behavior are valuable techniques for the study of computer networks. In addition to providing insight into the operation and usage patterns of present networks, the results can be used to create realistic models of existing traffic sources. Such models are a key component of the analytic and simulation studies often undertaken in the design of future networks...

Distributed Probabilistic Network Traffic Measurements

Measuring the per-flow traffic in large networks is very challenging due to the high performance requirements on the one hand, and due to the necessity to merge locally recorded data from multiple routers in order to obtain network-wide statistics on the other hand. The latter is nontrivial because traffic that traversed more than one measurement point must only be counted once, which requires ...
