Network Traffic Analysis System Based on Data Engineering Methodology Using System Entity Structure

Currently network uses, especially the number of Internet users, increase rapidly. Also, high quality of service is required and this requirement results a sudden network traffic increment. As a result, an efficient management system for huge network traffic becomes an important issue. The system entity structure (SES) using data engineering concepts enables network administrators to access traffic data easily and efficiently. The network traffic analysis system, which is studied in this paper, is an effective management system with a high throughput and a low response time designed and implemented based on a model and simulation based data engineering methodology. Extensible markup language (XML) is used for metadata language in this system.
