Hi,

Maybe these can help you...

Lines

in

critically

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).},

The

Internet

services.

further

that

workloads.
