The backpressure routing policy is known to be a throughput optimal policy that supports any feasible traffic demand in data networks, but may have poor delay performance when packets traverse loops in the network. In this paper, we study…
In this paper we propose and implement novel techniques for performance evaluation of web traffic (response time, response code, etc.), with no reassembly of the underlying TCP connection, which severely restricts the traffic analysis…
Link dimensioning is used by ISPs to properly provision the capacity of their network links. Operators have to make provisions for sudden traffic bursts and network failures to assure uninterrupted operations. In practice, traffic averages…
