Fluid-flow and packet-level models of data networks unified under a modular/hierarchical framework: Speedups and simplicity, combined

As network technologies undergo an exponential growth in terms of bandwidth and topology complexity, the gap is worsened between the performance of network simulation techniques and real network scenarios. Fluid-flow models for network dynamics are a well know option for reducing simulation overhead...

description As network technologies undergo an exponential growth in terms of bandwidth and topology complexity, the gap is worsened between the performance of network simulation techniques and real network scenarios. Fluid-flow models for network dynamics are a well know option for reducing simulation overhead while offering useful averaged approximations of network metrics.
