Project description
In this research, we develop mathematical models that may help us understand the behavior of communication networks. In particular, we study processes that cause much variance in communication networks and aim at quantifying the influence of this variance on both the average behavior and the extreme fluctuations of communication networks. To this end, we use mathematical scaling techniques.
