The novel self-similarity (S2) filter is proposed to identify self-similar Internet traffic patterns on the fly. The previous real-time traffic pattern detector (RTPD) does not have this identification capability. The +S2 combination is the enhanced RTPD or ERTPD. Since the longest ERPD execution time with is only 1455 clock cycles, it is still highly suitable for real-time applications. For example, it can be incorporated as part of a dynamic buffer tuner so that the latter can use the detected traffic pattern to fine-tune the control process. In this way S2 contributes to enhance the success of e-business by shortening the client/server service roundtrip time more effectively. This is achieved because it supports more accurate dynamic buffer tuning.
