Network traffic classification is extensively required mainly for many network management tasks such as flow prioritization, traffic shaping/policing, and diagnostic monitoring. Similar to network management tasks, many network engineering problems such as workload characterization and modeling, capacity planning, and route provisioning also benefit from accurate identification of network traff...

In the past decades, traffic problems has become a major research field of both academic and industrial community. In this paper, we propose a SelfAdaptive Navigation System (SeNS) to provide optimal tailored driving paths, reflecting real-time road traffic information. The current navigation systems are using server independently, and only use the static time stamp-based traffic information. F...

In this paper, we investigate the problem of efficiently provisioning connections of different bandwidth granularities in a heterogeneous WDM mesh network through dynamic traffic-grooming schemes under traffic-engineering (TE) principles. Due to the huge amount of traffic a WDM backbone network can support and the large geographic area it can cover, constructing and upgrading such an optical WD...

0163-6804/99/$10.00 © 1999 IEEE nternet growth in recent times has been very impressive. A report from the U.S. Department of Commerce [1] suggests that the rate at which the Internet has been adopted has surpassed all other technologies preceding it, including radio, television, and the personal computer. Today, the Internet has become a convenient and cost-effective medium for collaboration, ...

Dynamic engineering of application-specific network traffic is becoming more important for applications that consume large amounts of network resources, in particular, bandwidth. Since traditional traffic engineering approaches are static they cannot address this trend; hence there is a need for real-time traffic classification to enable dynamic traffic engineering. A packet flow monitor has be...

The main advantage of multilayer automatically switched IP-over-MPLSover-optical networks is their ability and their flexibility to adapt to the variations of the offered traffic. Multilayer traffic engineering mechanisms exploit this characteristic and perform traditional rerouting enriched with online IP logical topology reconfiguration. These mechanisms aim at optimizing resource usage and m...

Traffic engineering is a method of optimizing the performance of a telecommunication network by dynamically analysing, predicting and regulating the link utilization over the network. It handles the unexpected traffic dynamics for achieving better quality of service and overall network performance in wireless sensor networks. One of the existing AMPLE (Adaptive Multi-topology traffic Engineerin...
