Measuring in One-way

In this case, the traffic is generated in a single direction. From these traces only a few basic parameters can be estimated. We show that some other measures of interest can be estimated if these traces are collected in parallel with other techniques.

Using Set1, from Tangram-II Traffic Generator, traffic was generated from a MPEG trace file. With specific tools, videos in a MPEG format became traces of the frame size of a video file. One of these MPEG traces was used as input in a traffic generation between UFRJ and University of Massachusetts at Amherst. From the collection, the likelihood of consecutive loss and consecutive success was estimated by the tool. These estimations are shown in Figure , (A) and (B) respectively.
