Nevil Brownlee, The University of Auckland / CAIDA RTFM (RFCs 2720-2724) considers network traffic as being made up of Flows, which are arbitrary groupings of packets defined only by attributes of their end-points. RTFM flows are also bi-directional, with the user specifying which end-point is the

Kurt Tutschku [University of Wuerzburg] and Herbert Baier [InfoSim GmbH] In your paper we presented a new metric, denoted as "Network Comfort", which is used for evaluating the overall network performance. Network Comfort characterizes the system performance by comparing the instantaneous network pe

Georg Carle, Sebastian Zander, Tanja Zseby GMD FOKUS; Global Networking (GloNe) Traffic engineering and validation of service level agreements (SLAs) require measurement of quality of service parameters such as delay in specific sections of the network. Due to frequent asymmetries of forward and bac

Piet Van Mieghem, Gerard Hooghiemstra and Remco van der Hofstad Delft University of Technology, Information Technology and Systems In a recent paper [1], we have proposed a model for the number of traversed routers on the shortest path, further called in short 'the hopcount', between two arbitrarily

Simon Leinen SWITCH For more than three years, SWITCH has been using a locally developed software package called "Fluxoscope" to perform volume-based billing and traffic analysis tasks on traffic over our external (peering/transit) connections. The system processes microflow-based accounting data g

Fotis Georgatos, Florian Gruber, Daniel Karrenberg, Mark Santcroos, Henk Uijterwaal and Rene Wilhelm. RIPE NCC, Amsterdam, NL. The RIPE NCC has been active in the field of active measurements for approximately the last 3.5 years with the "Test Traffic Project", later renamed to "Test Traffic Measure

Attila Pasztor and Darryl Veitch EMULab at Melbourne University Active measurement, where probe traffic is generated and injected into a network, is becoming increasingly important due its great flexibility, intrinsically end-to-end nature, and freedom from the need to access core network switching
