Fractal behavior and long-range dependence are widely observed in measurements and characterization of traffic flow in high-speed computer networks of different technologies and coverage levels. This paper presents the results obtained when applying fractal analysis techniques on a time series obtained from traffic captures coming from an application server connected to the Internet through a high-speed link. The results obtained show that traffic flow in the dedicated high-speed network link have fractal behavior when the Hurst exponent is in the range of 0.5, 1, the fractal dimension between 1, 1.5, and the correlation coefficient between –0.5, 0. Based on these results, it is ideal to characterize both the singularities of the traffic and its impulsiveness during a fractal analysis of temporal scales. Finally, based on the results of the time series analyses, the fact that the traffic flows of current computer networks exhibit fractal behavior with a long-range dependency is reaffirmed.

Fractal behavior and long-range dependence are widely observed in measurements and characterization of traffic flow in high-speed computer networks of different technologies and coverage levels. This paper presents the results obtained when applying fractal analysis techniques on a time series obtained from traffic captures coming from an application server connected to the internet through a high-speed link. The results obtained show that traffic flow in the dedicated high-speed network link exhibited fractal behavior since the Hurst exponent was in the range of 0.5, 1, the fractal dimension between 1, 1.5, and the correlation coefficient between -0.5, 0. Based on these results, it is ideal to characterize both the singularities of the fractal traffic and its impulsiveness during a fractal analysis of temporal scales. Finally, based on the results of the time series analyzes, the fact that the traffic flows of current computer networks exhibited fractal behavior with a long-range dependence was reaffirmed.

<div>This article explores the required amount of time series points from a high-speed computer network to accurately estimate the Hurst exponent. The methodology consists in designing an experiment using estimators that are applied to time series addresses resulting from the capture of high-speed network traffic, followed by addressing the minimum amount of point required to obtain in accurate estimates of the Hurst exponent. The methodology addresses the exhaustive analysis of the Hurst exponent considering bias behaviour, standard deviation, and Mean Squared Error using fractional Gaussian noise signals with stationary increases. Our results show that the Whittle estimator successfully estimates the Hurst exponent in series with few</div><div>points. Based on the results obtained, a minimum length for the time series is empirically proposed. Finally, to validate the results, the methodology is applied to real traffic captures in a high-speed computer network.</div>

A novel constructive mathematical model based on the multifractal formalism in order to accurately characterizing the localized fluctuations present in the course of traffic flows today high-speed computer networks is presented. The proposed model has the target to analyze self-similar second-order time series representative of traffic flows in terms of their roughness and impulsivity.
