Special Issue on Teletraffic Engineering in Communications Systems
Aim and Scope:
Traffic theory and engineering have been an inseparable part of the
development of telecommunications and ICT infrastructure from the very
beginning of their existence. Teletraffic problems have changed
substantially over the recent years as a result of the changes in the
telecommunications area towards integrated digital networks, data services,
Internet and mobile communications, as well as networks convergence. Each
and every newly introduced type of a network technology is followed by a
substantial increase in both the number and the complexity of problems that
need to be resolved by theoreticians and traffic engineers. No matter what
these developing changes may bring, the essential task for traffic theory
remains the same - to determine and evaluate the relationship between the
quality of service parameters, the parameters that determine the intensity
of calls and the demanded resources, and the parameters that describe
available network resources. These relationships provide a basis for
developing engineering algorithms and tools used for designing, analysis and
optimization of systems and networks.
The objective of this special issue is to bring together the
state-of-the-art research contributions that address challenges in
teletraffic theory and engineering.
Topics of Interest:
The topics of primary interest include, but are not limited to:
- performance evaluation of wired and wireless networks
- optical network performance modelling and assessment
- QoS and QoE issues
- integration of a broad spectrum of services
- methods and tools for networks and services modelling
- call admission and congestion control
- analytical and simulation teletraffic models
- performance evaluation of switching systems
- traffic grooming
- network/traffic optimization
- QoS routing
- networks and services planning and dimensioning
- traffic forecasting and management
