Heavy traffic models for wireless queueing systems under short range dependence and light tail assumptions on the data traffic have been studied recently. We outline one such model considered by Buche and Kushner [7]. At the same time, similarly to what happened for wireline networks, the emergence of high capacity applications (multimedia, gaming) and inherent mechanisms (multi-access interfer...

Due to the varying and dynamic characteristics of network traffic, the analysis of traffic flows is of paramount importance for network security, accounting and traffic engineering. The problem of extracting knowledge from the traffic flows is known as the heavy-hitter issue. In this context, the main challenge consists in mining the traffic flows with high accuracy and limited memory consumpti...

Shortest Remaining Processing time (SRPT) has long been known to optimize the queue length distribution and the mean response time (a.k.a. flow time, sojourn time). As such, it has been the focus of a wide body of analysis. However, results about the heavy-traffic behavior of SRPT have only recently started to emerge. In this work, we characterize the growth rate of the mean response time under...
