For real time communication services over the Internet, it is important to be able to predict in advance the quality of a call before relaying it over a particular path. In this paper we show how to predict the distribution of the end-to-end bandwidth, latency, jitter, and loss of a call from an arbitrary user X to an arbitrary user Y through particular components of the Internet, given a dataset of millions of calls among other users. This work is the first to infer component bandwidth…

A maximum-likelihood estimator for loss rates on internal links based on losses observed by multicast receivers is developed, which exploits the inherent correlation between such observations to infer the performance of paths between branch points in the tree spanning a multicast source and its receivers.

End-to-end measurements of multicast traffic can be used to infer the packet delay distribution and utilization on each link of a logical multicast tree and is evaluated through simulation to establish desirable statistical properties of the estimator, namely consistency and asymptotic normality.

A Network Coding Approach to Loss Tomography
- Computer ScienceIEEE Transactions on Information Theory
- 2013
A framework for estimating link loss rates is designed, which leverages network coding capabilities, and it is shown that it improves several aspects of tomography, including the identifiability of links, the trade-off between estimation accuracy and bandwidth efficiency, and the complexity of probe path selection.

A novel algorithm to uniquely estimate the distribution of X, a vector of independent non-negative random variables, using only IID samples of the components of the random vector Y = AX is proposed, which does not even require any prior knowledge of the unknown distributions.

An EM algorithm is developed for computing MLE of the internal delay distributions in cases where the network dynamics are stationary over the observation period and a sequential Monte Carlo procedure capable of tracking non-stationary delay characteristics is proposed.
