Question 1
If a network link has a service time of 0.01 seconds and experiences an arrival rate of 100 packets per second, calculate the traffic intensity. Discuss how increasing the arrival rate to 150 packets would impact system behavior.
π‘ Hint: How does approaching capacity impact a system?
Question 2
Analyze how varying service time distributions (e.g., longer average service times) might impact overall network performance, especially concerning packet loss and waiting time.
π‘ Hint: Consider how packet length fluctuates and its relation to service rates.
