On the evolution of internet flow characteristics
Simon Bauer, Benedikt Jaeger, Fabian Helfert, Philippe Barias, Georg Carle · 2021
The ongoing evolution of technologies and network services on the Internet indicates ongoing changes in traffic and flow characteristics. Since the analysis of flow characteristics, like duration, size, and rate, has been a frequently studied topic before, results on the evolution of flow characteristics are rare. This paper surveys how flow characteristics have changed over time and whether there are significant trends in such characteristics.
