Abstract

We consider the underlying network characteristics of an IPTV trace. The pairwise dependence in a triple (X; Y;R) denoting the inter-arrival time between packets, the packet length and the rate of transmission in a peer-to-peer IPTV session is detected and modeled. The three quantities are related by R = Y=X. We argue that the inter-arrival time and the packet length as well as the rate and the packet length are dependent, and the rate and the inter-arrival time are almost independent random variables. The Pickand's function and an empirical copula are used as measures of dependence. A Clayton copula provides an appropriate model of all underlying pair-wise dependencies.
