Abstract :
We use a mathematical method based on stochastic comparison of multidimensional Markov chains in order to compute packet loss rates in IP routers for MPLS networks. The key idea of this methodology is that given a complex system represented by a Markov chain which is too large to be solved, we propose to build smaller Markov chains providing performance measures bounds.
