Long-range prediction of network traffic
William Alexander, Richard S. Brice · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1981
A method of making long-range computer system workload predictions is presented. The method quantifies the effect of qualitative changes in computing by identifying assumptions and by considering the effect of a change on individual users. The method is illustrated by an example involving message traffic in a large computer network.
