Many measurement studies are showing that peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing applications have evolved to become a major traffic source in the Internet. The ability to quantify their impact on the network is fundamental for network managers, who have to guarantee a satisfactory service level to their customers. We present here a scalable...

Nowadays P2P applications dominate many networks. However, despite of their diffusion, the analysis of teletraffic generated by these applications in real-time environment remains an open issue. In this paper we look at analytical and simulation models, which can be used for quantifying volumes of P2P teletraffic at the network layer, to ease...

Over the last few years, peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing applications have evolved to become a major traffic source in the Internet. The ability to quantify their impact on the network, as a consequence of both signaling and download traffic, is fundamental to a number of network operations, including traffic engineering, capacity planning,...
