Abstract

This paper discusses modeling requirements of network traffic over next-generation internets and intranets. This traffic will include not only traditional data, but continuous media and multimedia services like telephony, digital television, and interactive TV. We propose a model for interactive TV and discuss its relationship to traditional data and media traffic models. We also present simulation results using this model to compare network bandwidth allocation strategies based on the measured characteristic of on actual interactive TV application used in medical training
