Abstract: Internet Protocol (IP) packet traffic exhibits self-similarity or LRD property and causes the degradation of switch performance. Therefore, it is crucial for an appropriate buffer design of a switch. In this paper, by taking voids into consideration we investigate delay behavior of the switch under self-similar variable length packet traffic by modeling it as MMPP/M/1/K queuing system wherein MMPP (Markov-Modulated Poisson Process) is fitted by equating the variance of MMPP and that of self-similar traffic. MMPP model is already validated one to emulate the self-similar characteristics. We investigate mean delay against system parameters, traffic parameters and fitting parameters. Numerical results show that analysis presented in this paper is useful in dimensioning the switch.
