Some approximate models usually used as isolated methods are combined with a temporally scaled ON-OFF model with binomial approximations. The aggregation problem is solved using a new form of parameterization based on the composition of the source traffic accordingly to the concrete characteristics of the users, the accesses and the services. This is a new concept, called CASUAL, included within an overall network planning methodology for the design and dimensioning of Next Generation Internet.}, publisher = {Graz University of Technology-}, publisher = {Institut für Informationssysteme und Computer Medien (IICM)}, publisher = {Journal of Universal Computer Science, 2008, 14(5), 731-744}, title = {Approximation to a behavioral model for estimating traffic aggregation scenarios}, author = {García Gutiérrez, Alberto Eloy and Hackbarth Planeta, Klaus Dietrich}, }
