Abstract:
A set of traffic analysis and network bandwidth provisioning tools for support of the Science Information Network (SINET) is presented. The software structure and functionality are also described. The tools provide an estimation of tail probability based on an approximation using Fractional Brownian Motion (FBM) tail probability, and the tools also enable calculation of the average queueing buffer waiting time using the MMPP/G/1 waiting time approximation method. The estimations provided by these tools are consistent with simulations based on observed traffic data.
