title = "Multiscale nature of network traffic",
abstract = "The complexity and richness of teletraffic is shown to be well matched by the multiscale analysis and modeling frameworks of self-similarity, long-range dependence, fractals, multifractals, and infinitely divisible cascades. These frameworks not only allow to confirm and formalize the presence of multiscale behavior in traffic, but also point to possible causes of multiscale structure in the physical networking infrastructure. Whatever choice of the framework, the multiscale wavelet transform provides a parsimonious and efficient domain for processing.",

note = "Funding Information: Rudolf H. Riedi received the M.Sc. degree in 1986 and the Ph.D. degree in 1993, both from the Federal Institute of Technology ETH Zurich (Switzerland) in mathematics. From 1993-1995 he was with the Mathematics Department of Yale University, CT, and spent 1995-1997 with the National Research Institute in Automation and Computing INRIA in Paris, France. He is currently a Faculty Fellow with the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Rice University in Houston, TX. His research interests lie in the theory and practice of multifractals, multiscale analysis, and synthesis, especially for network traffic. He won the ETHZ Polya prize in 1986. He received a postdoctoral fellowship from the National Science Foundation of Switzerland in 1993 and a research grant from the Centre National des Etudes en Telecommunications, France, in 1995. He served as a guest editor for the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing. Funding Information: This work was supported by grants from USA DARPA, DOE, and NSF, the French CNRS, and by Ericcson.
