Network traffic

Back to research areas

Statistical self-similar characterization of residential traffic. Continuous low-load probing for QoS assessment and IXP/CDN traffic detection.

Lines of work

Self-similarity and long-range dependence

Residential traffic as a self-similar process; impact on packet loss.

Residential-access QoS

Continuous, very low-load probes integrated into a map annotated with QoS and MPLS tunnels.

RTT and latency models

Stochastic influence of cross traffic, even in the presence of IXPs and CDNs.
