Managing Traffic Performance in Converged Networks: 20th International Teletraffic Congress, ITC20 2007, Ottawa, Canada, June 17-21, 2007, Proceedings ... Networks and Telecommunications)

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Teletraffic Congress, ITC 2007, held in Ottawa, Canada in June 2007.

The 93 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks and 3 contributed papers of a plenary session were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in topical sections on IPTV planning and modeling, network performance, routing, server/switch performance, service overlay networks, traffic source and aggregate models, performance optimization in mesh networks, QoS in converged networks, traffic engineering, end-to-end delay in converged networks, queuing models, performance of peer-to-peer networks, traffic measurements and demand forecast, impact of convergence and divergence forces on network performance and provisioning, loss/blocking probability, traffic management in wireless networks, traffic measurements and characterization, network design for capacity and performance, performance of wireless networks, and scheduling.
