Source-level IP packet bursts
2003
Proceedings of the 2003 ACM SIGCOMM conference on Internet measurement - IMC '03
By source-level IP packet burst, we mean several IP packets sent back-to-back from the source of a flow. We first identify several causes of source-level bursts, including TCP's slow start, idle restart, window advancement after loss recovery, and segmentation of application messages into multiple UDP packets. We then show that the presence of packet bursts in individual flows can have a major impact on aggregate traffic. In particular, such bursts create scaling in a range of timescales which
