Abstract

With the increasing popularity of multimedia applications, video data represents a large portion of the traffic in modern networks. Consequently, adequate models of video traffic, characterized by a high burstiness and a strong positive correlation, are very important for the performance evaluation of network architectures and protocols. This paper presents new models for traffic with persistent correlations based on the M/G/∞ process. We derive two new discrete distributions for the service time of the M/G/∞ queueing system, flexible enough to give rise to processes whose correlation structure is able to exhibit both Short-Range Dependence (SRD) and Long-Range Dependence (LRD). The corresponding simulation models are easy to initialize in steady state. Moreover, as the two distributions have subexponential decay, we can apply a highly efficient and flexible generator of synthetic traces of the resulting M/G/∞ processes.
