A simple chaotic map model for fractal traffic generation in high-speed computer networks (Draft 3)

An extension of the models used to generate fractal traffic flows is presented by means of the formulation of a model that considers the use of one-dimensional chaotic maps. Based on the disaggregation of the temporal series generated by the model, a valid explanation of behavior of the values of Hurst exponent is proposed and the feasibility of their control from the parameters of the proposed model is shown.

Online Tracking: When Does it Become Stalking?

Online user activities are tracked for many purposes. In e-commerce, cross-domain tracking is used to quantify and pay for web-traffic generation. Our previous research studies have shown that HTTP cookie-based tracking process, though reliable, can fail due to technical reasons, as well as through fraudulent manipulation by traffic generators. In this research study, we evaluate which of the previously published tracking mechanisms are still functional. We assess the efficacy and utility of those methods to create a robust tracking mechanism for e-commerce. A failsafe and robust tracking mechanism does not need to translate into further privacy intrusions. Many countries are rushing to introduce new regulations, which can have a negative impact on the development of robust technologies in an inherently stateless eco-system. We used a multi-domain, purpose-built simulation environment to experiment common tracking scenarios, and to describe the parameters that define the minimum tracking requirement use-cases, and practices that result in invading privacy of users. This study will help practitioners in their implementations, and policy developers and regulators to draw up policies that would not curtail the development of robust tracking technologies that are needed in e-commerce activities, while safeguarding the privacy of internet users.

Evaluation of Traffic Performance in Basuki Rahmat Street, Palu City by Using Road Segmentation Method

: Basuki Rahmat Street is a National Road with a primary-arterial-function based on the Regional Master Plan of Palu City 2010-2030. The area is focused as a trade and service area which attracts visitors to have economic and social activities. Therefore, each section of the road has other traffic performance. The research was conducted in three road segments: Grand Hero Supermarket, Samsung store, and BCA Bank, and Star Kitchen Electronic Center based on traffic generation of business activity. The study aims to understand Basuki Rahmat street's performance and its activities in each segment. A survey was conducted periodically (early, middle, and end of the month) by taking a workday and a holiday for each period, from 09.00-22.00 WITA. The evaluation method was based on the Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM) 1997 urban area on peak hour. The result showed that the Road Segmentation Method (RMS) of Basuki Rahmat street has 0.37 degrees of Saturation (DS) and was included in a B level of service. The differences between DS-RMS and DS on each segment were 0.04. The road segmentation method should be considered to assess the traffic performance of the road link.
