Network traffic characterization for high-speed networks supporting multimedia
Khaled M. Elleithy, A.S. Al-Suwaiyan · 2002
Continuously growing needs for distributed applications that transmit massive amounts of data has led to the emergence of high-speed networks that require broadband and multimedia capabilities. Such networks are supposed to have the ability to handle heterogeneous traffic and to manage large span of resources and services effectively. A single server G/D/I queuing system with infinite buffer is simulated with the consideration of three input traffic sources: exponential, Weibull, and normal distributions. The upper bounds on buffer size are evaluated for the given distributions.
