The use of telecommunication services has experienced
tremendous growth over the past few years. Services have evolved
from basic telephony and data offerings to advanced integrated
services over high-speed networks, wireless networks and the
Internet. For example, the Internet traffic is doubling in size every
100 days; analysts are estimating more than 1 billion users
worldwide early in the 21st century. At the same time, demands
are picking up for new, elastic or real-time, services such as
supports for voice, video, e-commerce, computing applications,

new and more sophisticated solutions in the development of

traffic characterization, traffic modeling, teletraffic theory,
queueing models
traffic management, routing protocols, congestion and admission
control
network dimensioning methods, traffic engineering rules
modeling for QoS differentiation, multi-service and multi-
