Source traac streams as well as aggre-gated traac ows often exhibit long-range-dependent (LRD) properties. In this paper, we model each traac stream component through the multiplicative multi-fractal counting process traac model. We prove that the superposition of a nite number of multiplicative multifractal traac streams results in another multi-fractal stream. This property makes the multifra...
