Abstract :
A simple way to derive the equivalent bandwidth of an aggregate of heterogeneous self-similar sources is introduced. We show an envelope process for the fractal Brownian motion (fBm) process, and we investigate the time scale of interest of queuing systems fed by an fBm process. Based on the time scale, performance metrics can be computed with little computational effort and with the same accuracy of results predicted by the large deviation theory
