Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relates to bandwidth requirements within a packet data network. A method and system for analysing traffic is described herein. The method may utilises an estimation of a concave hull function of the arrived traffic within the buffer. The use of such a concave hull representation may allows for more efficient data processing and for a direct measurement of desired service rates for differing predetermined control parameters.
