"Using LiTGen, a Realistic IP Traffic Model, to Evaluate the Impact of Burstiness on Performance"

For practical reasons, network simulators have to be designed on traffic models as realistic as possible. This paper presents the evaluation of a realistic IP structure model that accurately captures the packet on interactions of a range of applications. Through automatically extracted distributions of user, application, and network behavior, it then generates live traffic corresponding to the underlying structure models in a network simulation environment running commodity network protocol stacks. We compare them against real data traces using two methods of evaluation. With a wavelet spectrum analysis, we highlight the intrinsic characteristics of the traffic and show this model\´s ability to generate traffic traces statistically similar to the original traffic. Then, a performance analysis ba- sed on simulations presents the impact of these characteristics on a simple queuing system, and demonstrates this model\´s ability to reproduce burstiness in traffic across a range of timescales which can be used in a variety of network settings. This work offers several improvements in terms of both functionalities and performance.
