Jin Ling Cao, William S. Cleveland, Yuan Gao, Kevin Jeffay, F. Donelson Smith, Michele C. Weigle · 2004
New source-level models for aggregated HTTP traffic and a design for their integration with the TCP transport layer are built and validated using two large-scale collections of TCP/IP packet header traces. An implementation of the models and the design in the ns network simulator can be used to generate web traffic in network simulations
