High-speed calculation method of the hurst parameter based on real traffic

Recent studies on traffic measurement analysis in the various networks have shown that packet traffic exhibits Long Range Dependent properties called Self-Similarity. Some papers reported that Self-Similarity degrades the network performance, such as buffer overflow. Thus, we need new network control considering Self-similar properties. Network control considering the Self-Similarity requires high speed calculation method of the Hurst Parameter. However, such methods has not been proposed yet. In this paper, we propose high-sped calculation method of the Hurst Parameter based on the Variance-Time Plot method, and show its performance. Furthermore, we try to show effectiveness of the network control with Self-Similarity.
