Simulation

• Basic algorithm (Lindley’s equation):

n 0 1 2 …

Un (Mb) 1.234 – 0.3551 0.743 …

m(t) (Mb) -0.5 -0.5 -0.5 …

Qn (Mb) 0 max(0, 1.234 – 0.5)=0.734

max (0, 0.734 – 0.3551 – 0.5)=0

Length of Un = 222 for different Δt, it is time-consuming to generate Un for different time unit)

An efficient approachInstead of generating a new sequence of numbers, we change the “units” of work (y-axis).

1ms -> Δt ms

variance of the fBn sequence (Un): V

Rescale the Y-asix

An efficient approachInstead of generating a new sequence of numbers, we change the “units” of work (y-axis).

1 unit = S instead of 1 where

Rescale m and P(Q>x)•m = μΔt/S units, so

•P(Q>x) is changed to P(Q>x/S)

Only need one fBn sequence

Background• Self-similar (Long Range Dependency)

• “Aggregating streams of traffic typically intensifies the self similarity (“burstiness”) instead of smoothing it.”[1]

• Very different from conventional telephone traffic model(for example, Poisson or Poisson-related models)

• Using Hurst parameter (H) as a measure of “burstiness”
