Hi,

Maybe these can help you...

  abstract = {A large and rapidly growing proportion of users connect
to the Internet
	via residential broadband networks such as Digital Subscriber Lines
	(DSL) and cable. Residential networks are often the bottleneck in
	the last mile of today's Internet. Their characteristics critically
	affect Internet applications, including voice-over-IP, online games,
	and peer-to-peer content sharing/delivery systems. However, to date,
	few studies have investigated commercial broadband deployments, and
	rigorous measurement data that characterize these networks at scale
	are lacking. In this paper, we present the first large-scale measurement
	study of major cable and DSL providers in North America and Europe.
	We describe and evaluate the measurement tools we developed for this
	purpose. Our study characterizes several properties of broadband
	networks, including link capacities, packet round-trip times and
	jitter, packet loss rates, queue lengths, and queue drop policies.
	Our analysis reveals important ways in which residential networks
	differ from how the Internet is conventionally thought to operate.
	We also discuss the implications of our findings for many emerging
	protocols and systems, including delay-based congestion control (e.g.,
	PCP) and network coordinate systems (e.g., Vivaldi).},

	two major categories: residential and Small-Office/Home-Office (SOHO).
	For each user category, the characterization is performed along four
	criteria: (i) session arrival process, (ii) session duration, (iii)
	number of bytes transferred within a session and (iv) user request
	patterns.Our results show that both residential and SOHO session
	inter-arrival times are exponentially distributed. Whereas residential
	session arrival rates remain relatively high during the day, SOHO
	session arrival rates vary much more significantly during the day.
	On the other hand, a typical SOHO user session is longer and transfers
	a larger volume of data. Furthermore, our analysis uncovers two main
	groups of session request patterns within each user category. The
	first group consists of user sessions that use traditional Internet
	services, such as e-mail, instant messenger and, mostly, www services.
	On the other hand, sessions from the second group, a smaller group,
	use typically peer-to-peer file sharing applications, remain active
	for longer periods and transfer a large amount of data. Looking further
	into the e-business services most commonly accessed, we found that
	subscription-based and advertising services account for the vast
	majority of user HTTP requests in both residential and SOHO workloads.
	Understanding these user behavior patterns is important to the development
	of more efficient applications for broadband users.},
