Abstract: |
Design space exploration
and detailed analysis in the field of hardware design applies simulation in
many variants. A frequently used method is stochastic simulation where
systems are stimulated by randomised input.
Synthetic traffic traces mainly form the load for stochastic simulation of
network computing devices. The generator presented here utilises
two well-known models to meet the features of a majority of applications and
traffic sources. Based on application-specific pa- rameter
sets, the traffic models stochastically generate packet flows
which are merged to an aggregated stream. Nevertheless, all packets
can always be identified and are not resolved to a data mass representing the
load of a link. |
