Use Demand and Traffic Volume 3 What is Use Demand? It is the traffic load generated from users in different network locations, in any data format (text-photo- voice-video etc), to be transmitted to other network locations.
Use demand and Traffic Volume 4 There are three types of Traffic Load Usage: General Traffic Load 1. Symmetrical Traffic Load 2. Centralized Traffic Load 3.
Example: Locations for network access: Source of load 5 8 different Access Locations Source of Load (Traffic)
Types on Traffic Load Usage 6 General Traffic Load: form. Traffic load have no specific 1.
Types on Traffic Load Usage 7 Symmetrical Traffic Load: Traffic load from first 1. network location to second is equal to traffic load from the second network location to the first. Example: Traffic load exchanged between different countries in the global telephone network.
Types on Traffic Load Usage 9 Centralized Traffic Load: Centralized network 1. location controls communication to all other network locations, and these network location cannot contact each other directly. Example: Used in private network that requires special management or monitoring control.
Use Demands and Traffic Volume Central Traffic load: A5 is the center 10
Performance Demand 12 Measurements for performance demand: 1. Availability 2. Congestion 3. Delay
Availability Availability: The Readiness of network to be used. Or reduction in network failure T Duration for measuring availability S Availability duration (within T) Availability (T S) Unavailability duration V = S / T Availability measurement NV = (T - S) / T Unavailability measurement T: Period of time determined to measure network availability S: Period of time (within T) where the network is available. 13
Congestion Congestion is the increase in traffic load to a level that exceeds the available network capacity. Congestion reasons: No enough capacity No enough hardware 1. 2. Congestion measurement is defined as the percentage of rejected traffic load to the total traffic load in a specific period of time. Congestion= Rejected load/ total load 14
Congestion Congestion measurement is usually used in circuit switched networks for telephone networks (PSTN) L Total load S Carried load Congestion (L S) Rejected load B = (L - S) / L Congestion measurement NB = S / L Non-congestion measurement 15
Delay The latency in traffic exchanged in the network due to limited network capacity, . occurs in store-and-forward networks Delay increase if the traffic load increase. Processing duration in switches P Wait time (before send) W Sending time (In channels) S Delay Propagation time G Duration of transmitting information from one site to another D = P + W + S + G 16
