Users Dimensioning and Traffic Modelling in Rural e-Health Services
نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of e-Health services in rural environments, where broadband networks are usually not accessible, requires a specific analysis of available resources to improve Quality of Service (QoS) management. This work quantifies the maximum number of simultaneous users that fulfill the specific QoS levels in common e-Health services, including both store-andforward and real-time telemedicine applications. The analysis also proposes variations in the modelling of traffic distributions regarding the number of multiplexed users. The results obtained in this study permit an accurate users dimensioning, which is necessary to optimize the performance and to guarantee the QoS requirements in this kind of services where network resources are limited.

Measurement-Based Link Dimensioning for the Future Internet
Network operators have observed a significant increase in traffic demand in the past decade. That is because the Internet is now ubiquitous and provides means to access services essential to our daily life. To accommodate these traffic demands, operators over-provision their networks using simple rules of thumb for link dimensioning. However, throwing more link capacity in the network is not al...

متن کاملApproximation to a Behavioral Model for Estimating Traffic Aggregation Scenarios
This article provides a comparison among different methods for estimating the aggregation of Internet traffic resulting from different users, network-access types and corresponding services. Some approximate models usually used as isolated methods are combined with a temporally scaled ON-OFF model with binomial approximations. The aggregation problem is solved using a new form of parameterizati...
متن کاملTraffic Modeling and Performance Evaluation in GSM/GPRS Networks
The sharing of resources between different users and different services is a key concept of radio resources dimensioning in GSM/GPRS networks. In this paper we present dimensioning rules based on traffic evaluation and quality of service level for GSM/GPRS users, focused on two radio resources allocation strategies: CP (Complete Partitioning) and PP( Partial Partitioning).The quality of service...
متن کاملMeasurement and Modelling of Internet Traffic at Access Networks
With the growing popularity of the Internet, more and more users access the Internet from their homes via the public switched telephone network. Today ́s traffic load can not be described accurately by classical methods and therefore new traffic models are needed to allow proper network design and dimensioning. In this paper the dialup session behaviour of home users is discussed. Based on the l...
