About this title

Synopsis

Over the last three decades, there have been many significant changes in network technologies, architectures, and services. These changes have presented many challenges to the traffic theorists as the equipment has become largely digital, software controllable, more integrated, and highly flexible. Telecommunications networks now support a myriad of services with network topologies and equipment capacities that can be dynamically reconfigured and reallocated in near real-time. The flexibility and sophistication of the various networks and the volatility of the demands have made nearly every element traffic sensitive and hence, amenable to stochastic modeling and probabilistic engineering. Technological advances have provided a rich and interesting set of issues for traffic research that may impact nearly every aspect of the telecommunications industry.

This proceedings reflects a truly broad field of work, from basic traffic theory to network services, planning tools, network technologies, forecasting methods, simulation, and computing algorithms.
