Abstract :
A novel scheme for the classification and reproduction of packet channel burstiness is presented. Channels are described by burst-length-loading pairs, and an algorithm is presented which can faithfully reproduce any traffic characteristic for use in packet-level discrete time packet switch simulation studies
