The on-off network traffic model under intermediate scaling. (English) Zbl 1235.60121
The paper establishes an invariance principle for the normalized cumulative workload of a network with $$m$$ on-off sources and time rescaled by a factor $$a$$. When both the number of sources $$m$$ and the time scale $$a$$ tend to infinity with a relative growth given by the so-called “intermediate connection rate” condition, the limit process is the fractional Poisson motion.
