MERGING AND SPLITTING SECOND-ORDER SELF-SIMILAR PROCESSES (TRAFFICS)
Shi Jian · 上海交通大学学报：英文版 · 2000
Recent traffic measurements in corporate LANs, Variable Bit Rate (VBR) video sources, ISDN control channels, and other communication systems, have indicated traffic behavior of self similar nature, which has implications for design, control and analysis of high speed networks. Merging and splitting are two basic networking operations. This paper gave the necessary and sufficient conditions for that merging of second order self similar traffic streams also results in a second order self similar stream. It shows that splitting traffic streams of the second order self similar stream are still self similar streams by the independent splitting operation.
