Abstract

An arbitrary metric stream is processed initially at an interim sampling rate to derive a plurality of samples. The samples are analyzed preferably to determine an estimate of the effective bandwidth of the metric stream. As a result of the analysis, an improved sampling rate is determined and adopted for further sampling. In a preferred embodiment, the improved sampling rate is a function of the effective bandwidth.
