Abstract :
It is important to characterize the distributional property and the correlation structure of traffic arrival processes in modeling internet traffic. The conventional fractional Gaussian noise (fGn) model fails in characterizing the distributional property when the distribution of the input traffic rates is nongaussian. We propose a shifted gamma distribution model which can solve this problem. A linear-time generation algorithm is also given.
