Today’s urban traffic network management strategies often overlook the interests of the individual road user, insufficiently consider travel choice behaviour and underestimate the importance of human psychology. Their effectiveness is at stake. This research contributes to knowledge about trade-offs between conflicting interests and objectives, by combining insights from traffic management, tra...

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging networking paradigm that separates the network control plane from the data forwarding plane with the promise to dramatically improve network resource utilization, simplify network management, reduce operating cost, and promote innovation and evolution. Although traffic engineering techniques have been widely exploited in the past and current data...

Aim of this paper is to present ATM technology and its main advantage, the mechanism of a traffic management and congestion control. In the first part brief overview of traffic management issues in ATM network are presented. Then requirements on preventive traffic control functions are discussed. In the second part of this paper we address various types of proposed connection admission control ...

Traffic Engineering (TE) is the process of controlling how traffic flows through a network in order to facilitate efficient and reliable network operations while simultaneously optimizing network resource utilization and traffic performance. TE improves the management of data traffic within a network and provides the better utilization of network resources. Many research works considers intra a...

Reliable traffic information is essential for the development of efficient traffic control and management strategies for traffic networks in advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) and advanced traveler information systems (ATIS). Real-time traffic information is utilized for various purposes such as dynamic route guidance, incident detection, and control of variable message signs. Traffic i...

In xDSL networks, accurate bandwidth measurement is useful for network management and traffic engineering, such as isolating line faults and verifying guaranteed QoS specifications, where ISP and xDSL providers may be involved. This paper presents a novel design and implementation of Java based tools for accurately measuring network bandwidth in xDSL networks, including asymmetric upstream and ...

With the rapid development of Internet technology, the network now has a large size and high complexity, and consequently the network management is becoming increasing difficult and complexity, so traffic forecast play a more and more role in network management. With a large amount of real traffic data collected from the actual network, an adaptive network traffic prediction algorithm based on ...

We present a novel approach for the measurement of one-way delays and throughput between network nodes in heterogeneous environment over Wide Area Network (WAN). This research investigates performance evaluation of remote data transfers on heterogeneous services and technologies environment. We propose an enhanced equation to evaluate the performance of network traffic management via Little Law...

Dynamically Controlled Routing (DCR) is a centralized, adaptive network traffic management system which significantly enhances network performance and survivability. In a DCR network, switches communicate with a network processor which computes routing recommendations for overflow traffic based on near real time network status and traffic volume information. A DCR network, when properly dimensi...

IPTV over DSL access networks is becoming a reality. This paper studies the impact of the presence of a video-aware traffic management module in the access network on the performance of the video dejittering mechanism at the receiver. The presented numerical results illustrate that with the traffic management module, the packet loss probability at the dejittering buffer decreases. Since the tra...
