Network traffic analysis increasingly uses complex machine learning models as the internet consolidates and traffic gets more encrypted. However, over high-bandwidth networks, flows can easily arrive faster than model inference rates. The…
The packet is the fundamental unit of transportation in modern communication networks such as the Internet. Physical layer scheduling decisions are made at the level of packets, and packet-level models with exogenous arrival processes have…
A new method of estimating some statistical characteristics of TCP flows in the Internet is developed in this paper. For this purpose, a new set of random variables (referred to as observables) is defined. When dealing with sampled traffic,…
Power flow analysis plays a crucial role in examining the electricity flow within a power system network. By performing power flow calculations, the system's steady-state variables, including voltage magnitude, phase angle at each bus,…
Inspired by the success of Transformer-based models in natural language processing, this paper investigates their potential as foundation models for network traffic analysis. We propose a unified pre-training and fine-tuning pipeline for…
The occurrence of diffusion on a graph is a prevalent and significant phenomenon, as evidenced by the spread of rumors, influenza-like viruses, smart grid failures, and similar events. Comprehending the behaviors of flow is a formidable…
In this paper, we propose a proof-of-concept Graph Neural Network model that can successfully predict network flow-level traffic (NetFlow) by accurately modelling the graph structure and the connection features. We use sliding-windows to…
A new approach for the analysis of information flow on a network is suggested using protocol parameters encapsulated in the package headers as functions of time. The minimal number of independent parameters for a complete description of the…
We study a minimal model of traffic flows in complex networks, simple enough to get analytical results, but with a very rich phenomenology, presenting continuous, discontinuous as well as hybrid phase transitions between a free-flow phase…
We present a model of performance bound calculus on feedforward networks where data packets are routed under wormhole routing discipline. We are interested in determining maximum end-to-end delays and backlogs of messages or packets going…
Concerns regarding the scalability of the inter-domain routing have encouraged researchers to start elaborating a more robust Internet architecture. While consensus on the exact form of the solution is yet to be found, the need for a…
Power-law fluctuation in observed Internet packet flow are discussed. The data is obtained by a multi router traffic grapher (MRTG) system for 9 months. The internet packet flow is analyzed using the detrended fluctuation analysis. By…
Network traffic monitoring based on IP Flows is a standard monitoring approach that can be deployed to various network infrastructures, even the large IPS-based networks connecting millions of people. Since flow records traditionally…
Traffic flow count data in networks arise in many applications, such as automobile or aviation transportation, certain directed social network contexts, and Internet studies. Using an example of Internet browser traffic flow through…
The predominant use of wireless access networks is for media streaming applications, which are only gaining popularity as ever more devices become available for this purpose. However, current access networks treat all packets identically,…
It is shown that bandwidth estimation in packet networks can be viewed in terms of min-plus linear system theory. The available bandwidth of a link or complete path is expressed in terms of a {\em service curve}, which is a function that…
A 100 Mbps Ethernet link between a college campus and the outside world was monitored with a dedicated PC and the measured data analysed for its statistical properties. Similar measurements were taken at an internal node of the network. The…
Traffic flow prediction is an important part of smart transportation. The goal is to predict future traffic conditions based on historical data recorded by sensors and the traffic network. As the city continues to build, parts of the…
Energy networks should strive for reliability. How can it be assessed, measured, and improved? What are the best trade-offs between investments and their worth? The flow-based framework for the reliability assessment of energy networks…
This work proposes a new mathematical model for the TCP/AQM system that aims to improve the accuracy of existing fluid models, especially with respect to the sequential events that occur in the network. The analysis is based on the…
