From a statistical signal processing viewpoint, collected traces correspond to (multivariate) time series principally characterized by non-properties: non-gaussianity, non-stationarity, non-linearities, absence of a characteristic time scale (scale invariance). Our research activity is undertaking the development of reliable signal analysis and modeling tools aimed at identifying these (non-)properties in the specific context of computer network traffic. In the course, we intend to clarify the importance of granularity of measurements.
More precisely, our interest lies in:
