Editing Traffic generation model (section)

{{refimprove|date=May 2013}}

A '''traffic generation model''' is a stochastic model of the [[traffic flow]]s or data sources in a [[communication network]], for example a cellular network or a computer network. A '''packet generation model''' is a traffic generation model of the [[packet flow]]s or data sources in a [[packet-switched network]]. For example, a [[web traffic]] model is a model of the data that is sent or received by a user's [[Web browser|web-browser]]. These models are useful during the development of telecommunication technologies, in view to analyse the performance and capacity of various protocols, algorithms and network topologies .
