[22] Official 1996 olympic web site-home page. In this paper, we have presented a statistical analysis of through-puts of Web transfers. This analysis was performed using a large packet-level trace of traffic at the Web site for the Atlanta Summer Olympic Games. Observed mean throughputs for these transfers vary widely as a function of end-host location and time of day, confirming that a large amount of heterogeneity exists in the Inter-net. Our analysis showed that despite these wide variations the transfer throughput exhibited significant temporal and spatial stability. In particular, we found that: 1. Throughputs to several individual internet hosts can be mod-eled using a log-normal distribution regardless of location. More precisely, we found that for over 50% of the hosts in our study, the log-normal hypothesis could not be rejected at any level of significance, and that it characterized observed throughputs better than the other analytic distributions we considered. 2. Nearby Internet hosts often have almost identical probability distributions of observed throughput. The size of the clusters for which performance is identical varies as a function location on the Internet. However, our analyses show that cluster sizes in the range of 2-4 hops work for many regions. 3. Our analysis of a small number of hosts shows that end-to-end throughputs to hosts often vary by less than a factor of two over time scales on the order of many tens of minutes. We also find that throughputs are piecewise stationary over time scales of this magnitude. Overall, these traffic characteristics indicate that there is great promise in techniques that cache and share such network characteristics amongst nearby hosts as well as within a single host across connections. Schwithenberg, and others who did an admirable job of running the Atlanta Olympics Web server at the site in Southbury, CT, for their support and help. They provided patient help and advice while under enormous pressures in getting the Web site up and running. We also thank Arvind Krishna and Hamid Ahmadi for their support and encouragement, as well as comments on earlier drafts of this paper. We would also like to thank the anonymous SIGMETRICS reviewers for their detailed comments, suggestions, and criticisms, that led to significant improvements in the quality of this paper. Obviously, one cannot generalize these results to make general statements about the stability of Internet performance, but it is a start. In particular, the fact that performance …

Improving Bandwidth-power Efficiency of Homogeneous Wireless Networks Using On-meet Threshold Strategy (RESEARCH NOTE)

Over two decades, a problem of location dependent has been focused for improving the communication Bandwidth-Power Efficiency of homogeneous networks. The efficiencies of communication links are weakened by the Hidden Terminal Problem.  Thus we propose a Fine – Tune Strategy for analyzing the On-Off communication region. We were observed that the proposed technique had been able to track and mo...

Evaluation of Dynamic Probing Testing Effect in Hand Excavated Pit on Test Results Using Numerical Modeling

In Iran, using the hand excavated pits (wells) have been more common compared to other countries. As a matter of fact, recent years, utilizing the dynamic probing test (DPT) in these types of pits has been significantly developed in Iran. This is while the standard state of doing this test is from the ground level. In this work, the dynamic probing test is carried out in two similar wells with ...

Evaluation and characterization of available bandwidth probing techniques

The packet pair mechanism has been shown to be a reliable method to measure the bottleneck link capacity on a network path, but its use for measuring available bandwidth is more challenging. In this paper, we use modeling, measurements, and simulations to better characterize the interaction between probing packets and the competing network traffic. We first construct a simple model to understan...
