Network traffic has fractal properties such as impulsiveness selfsimilarity and long-range dependence over several time scales from milliseconds to minutes. These features have motivated the development of new traffic models and traffic control algorithms. This book presents a new statespace model for Internet traffic which is based on a finite-dimensional representation of the Autoregressive Fractionally Integrated Moving Average (ARFIMA) random process. The modeling via Autoregressive (AR) processes is also investigated. |Internet Teletraffic Modeling and Estimation
