This paper presents an advanced architecture for a traffic generator capable of producing ATM traffic streams according to fully general semi-Markovian stochastic models. The architecture employs a basic traffic generator platform and enhances it by adding facilities for 'driving' the cell generation process through high-level specifications. Several kinds of optimization are employed for enhancing the software's speed to match the hardware's potential and for ensuring that traffic streams corresponding to models with a wide range of parameters can be generated efficiently and reliably. The proposed traffic generation procedure is highly modular. Thus, although this paper deals with ATM traffic, the main elements of the architecture can be used equally well for generating traffic loads on other networking technologies, IP-based networks being a notable example.

A study on network traffic analysis and modeling has been exclusively done due to its importance. However, conventional studies on network traffic analysis and modeling only focus on transmitting simple packet stream or traffic features of specific application, such as HTTP. In this paper, we propose a network traffic generator, which reflects the characteristics of multimedia data. To analyze the traffics of online game, which is one of the most popular multimedia contents, we modeled the distribution according to the time between packets and packet size random variable and designed the traffic generator which has the model for input. We generated the traffics of L4D(Left4Dead), WoW(World of Warcraft) with proposed network traffic generator and we found that the generated traffics have similar distributions with real data.

In this paper, a fuzzy traffic controller using genetic algorithms is presented. Conventional fuzzy traffic controllers use membership functions generated by humans. However, this approach does not guarantee the optimal solution to design the fuzzy controller. Genetic algorithm is a good problem solving method requiring domain-specific knowledge that is often heuristic. To find fuzzy membership functions showing good performance, a fitness function must be defined. However it's not easy in traffic control to define such a function as a numeric expression. Thus, we use simulation approach, namely, the fitness value of a solution is determined by use of a performance measure that is obtained by traffic simulator. The proposed method outperforms the conventional fuzzy controllers.

Users quite often experience volatile channel conditions which negatively influence multimedia transmission. HTTP adaptive streaming has emerged as a new promising technology where the video quality can be adjusted to variable network conditions. Nevertheless, the new technology does not remain without drawbacks. As it has been observed, multiple video players sharing the same network link have often problems with achieving good efficiency and stability of play-out due to a mutual interference and competition among video players. Our investigation indicates that there may be another cause for under-performance of the streamed video. In an emulated environment, we implemented three algorithms of adaptive video play-out based on bandwidth or buffer assessment. As we show, traffic generated by players employing the same or similar play-out strategies is positively correlated and synchronised (clustered), whereas traffic originated from different play-out strategies shows negative or no correlations. However, when some of the parameters of the play-out strategies are randomised, the correlation and synchronisation diminish what has a positive impact on the smoothness of the traffic and on the video quality perceived by end users. Our research shows that non-correlated traffic flows generated by play-out strategies improve efficiency and stability of streamed adaptive video.

High-speed services and bulk transmission were available by the development of the network and communication technologies. Moreover various next-generation converged services are undergoing a change by various services. This paper presents improved real-time simulated traffic generation and verification schemes based on the actual traffic pattern analysis. For this, we analyzed traffic patterns of actual application system and generated simulated traffics. We also suggested scheme that verify similarity of simulated traffic and actual traffic.

The study of game traffic has neglected by scientists, but as Internet gaming becomes more popular, multiplayer online games have become a significant element of Internet traffic. In this paper we analyze Internet traffic generated by sessions of multiplayer online games and study source models of multiplayer online game traffic. Our analysis shows that the empirical game traffic can be characterized by certain analytical model. We describe how our empirical traffic data set can be modeled and discuss how game server type influences interarrival distribution.

This paper aims to evaluate the effect of typhoons on fatigue damage accumulation in steel decks of long-span suspension bridges. The strain-time histories at critical locations of deck sections of long-span bridges during different typhoons passing the bridge area are investigated by using on-line strain data acquired from the structural health monitoring system installed on the bridge. The fatigue damage models based on Miner's Law and Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) are applied to calculate the increment of fatigue damage due to the action of a typhoon. Accumulated fatigue damage during the typhoon is also calculated and compared between Miner's Law and the CDM method. It is found that for the Tsing Ma Bridge case, the stress spectrum generated by a typhoon is significantly different than that generated by normal traffic and its histogram shapes can be described approximately as a Rayleigh distribution. The influence of typhoon loading on accumulative fatigue damage is more significant than that due to normal traffic loading. The increment of fatigue damage generated by hourly stress spectrum for the maximum typhoon loading may be much greater than those for normal traffic loading. It is, therefore, concluded that it is necessary to evaluate typhoon induced fatigue damage for the purpose of accurately evaluating accumulative fatigue damage for long-span bridges located within typhoon prone regions.

Many recent studies have been conducted involving the transport of constant and variable bit rate MPEG-2 video in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks. In this study, the traffic control of supporting MPEG-2 video communications in ATM networks under unloaded or loaded network conditions, in which the generated traffic sources are bursty in nature, are considered. We analyse about MPEG-2 traffic and design a model, which makes use of the ATM OAM funcation in order to support the traffic control functions. To implement the model, we propose a scheme, which combines the performance management OAM function and the bandwidth allocation function. Especially, we design this scheme to control the VBR (Variable Bit Rate)MPEG-2 video traffic.

The coordinated control of the traffic signals of adjacent intersections can reduce delays, relative number of stops and congestions in the coordinated traffic area. The road capacity can be increased to a certain extend because the stopping and starting of vehicles facing red traffic lights can be avoided in many instances due to the progression established along an artery. However, if traffic centers or leaves the main flow in irregular volumes on the intermediate road section, a coordination of traffic signals is unnecessary and may even be harmful. Therefore, a computer simulation model to simulate and predict the effectiveness of a synchronized traffic signal system in the CBD of Seoul was developed and alternative policy variables, such as cycle time, offsets, phase splits, to be fed into the simulation model had to be generated. This is a report of (1) the development of a heuristic algorithm for the determination of phase splits when there are amber periods specifically reserved for left turns and (2) the computerization of time-space diagramming.

Next generation wireless network is evolving toward IP-based network that can various provide multimedia services. A challenge in wireless mobile Internet is support of quality of service over wireless access networks. DiffServ architecture is proposed for evolving wireless mobile Internet. In this paper we propose an algorithm for optimal buffer partitioning which requires the minimal channel capacity to satisfy the QoS requirements of input traffic. We used a partitioned buffer with size B to serve a layered traffic at each DiffServ router. We consider a traffic model with a single source generates traffic having J $(J\geq2)$ quality of service (QoS) classes. QoS in this case is described by loss probability $\varepsilon_j$. for QoS class j. Traffic is admitted or rejected based on the buffer occupancy and its service class. Traffic is generated by heterogeneous Markov-modulated fluid source (MMFS).
