Wide area traffic: the failure of Poisson modeling

Vern Paxson, Sally Floyd · TNET · 1995

Summary

It is found that user-initiated TCP session arrivals, such as remote-login and file-transfer, are well-modeled as Poisson processes with fixed hourly rates, but that other connection arrivals deviate considerably from Poisson.
