Quality of Service Metrics using Generalized Pareto Distribution

Computer networks are becoming an important aspect of our life. More users are competing for limited resources; degradation in the quality of service is thus unavoidable. Proper modeling of bursts and serious deterioration is important. We model network traffic bursts using generalized Pareto distri...
