An Acceleration Simulation Method for Power law Priority Traffic

A method for accelerated simulation for simulated self-similar processes is proposed. This technique simplifiesthe simulation model and improves the efficiency by using excess packets instead of packet-by-packet source traffic for aFIFO and non-FIFO buffer scheduler. In this research is focusing on developing an equivalent model of the conventionalpacket buffer that can produce an output analysis (which in this case will be the steady state probability) much faster. Thisacceleration simulation method is a further development of the Traffic Aggregation technique, which had previously been applied to FIFO buffers only and applies the Generalized Ballot Theorem to calculate the waiting time for the low priority traffic (combined with prior work on traffic aggregation). This hybrid method is shown to provide a significant reduction in the process time, while maintaining queuing behavior in the buffer that is highly accurate when compared to results from a conventional simulation.
