Abstract :
Discussions of how to measure the performance of computer networks for various applications have been ongoing for over twenty years in the area of network research. The continual increase of data traffic volume has reached a point at which solving any network problem by over-provisioning is not suitable. The quest for alternatives makes it vital to have well-defined metrics for evaluating and sustaining the performance of networks.
