The heterogeneity of inter-domain Internet application flows: entropic analysis and flow graph modelling
2013
The growing popularity of the Internet has triggered the proliferation of various applications, which possess diverse communication patterns and user behaviour. In this paper, the heterogeneous characteristics of Internet applications and traffic are investigated from a complex network and entropic perspective. On the basis of real-life flow data collected from a public network provided by an Internet service provider, flow graphs are constructed for five types of applications as follows: Web, P2P Download, P2P Stream, Video Stream and Instant Messaging. Three types of entropy measures are introduced to the flow graphs, and the heterogeneity of applications within a 24-h period is analysed …
Robustness of plasmonic angular momentum confinement in cross resonant optical antennas
2015
Using a combination of photoemission electron microscopy and numerical simulations, we investigated the angular moment transfer in strongly enhanced optical near-fields of artificially fabricated optical antennas. The polarization dependence of the optical near-field enhancement has been measured in a maximum symmetric geometry, i.e., excitation by a normal incident planar wave. Finite-difference time-domain simulations for the realistic antenna geometries as determined by high-resolution electron microscopy reveal a very good agreement with experimental data. The agreement confirms that the geometrical asymmetries and inhomogeneities due to the nanoscale fabrication process preserve the ci…
A measurement-based study on the correlations of inter-domain Internet application flows
2014
Internet traffic characterization has a profound impact on network engineering and traffic identification. Existing studies are often carried out on a per-flow basis, focusing on the properties of individual flows. In this paper, we study the interaction of Internet traffic flows and network features from a complex network perspective, focusing on six types of applications: P2P file sharing, P2P stream, HTTP, instant messaging, online games and abnormal traffic. With large-volume traffic flow records collected through proprietary line-speed hardware-based monitors, we construct flow graphs of these different application types. Based on the flow graphs, we calculate the correlation coefficie…
