Hot Topics in Internet Measurement : Power-law Properties in Indonesia Internet Traffic. Why do we care about it ?

FIRST Seminar (Room 1&2)

Wednesday — November 14th, 2012 14:00

In early stage of Internet era, the Internet traffic had been thought to be modeled by Poisson process, because hosts are assumed to send and receive data packets randomly. The validity of this assumption has clearly lost ac the basis of various experimental measurements. Power-law properties have been investigated intensively during this decade. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the power-law properties found in Internet packet flow especially in Indonesia. This paper contains three sections. In the first section, we remind the concept of power-law to the readers. In the section two, the power-law structure of the Internet and the power-law properties of the Internet packet flow are discussed. In the section three, we focus on the relation between power-law structure of the Indonesia Internet and power-law properties of the Indonesia Internet packet flow. Future challenges on investigating power-law properties in various Internet measurement are also discussed.
