Abstract :
The self-similar/multifractal nature of Internet traffic has been observed by several measurements and statistical studies. It has not been decided yet whether the traces are following either self-similar or multifractal flows. In this paper we analyzed Internet data traffic, both the classical Bellcore-data and data measured at our MAN by a local protocol analyzer. A new multifractal stochastic model was applied and showed its relevance in these cases
