Itineration of the Internet over Nonequilibrium Stationary States in Tsallis Statistics
arXiv:cond-mat/0204336 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.67.016106
Abstract
The cumulative probability distribution of sparseness time interval in the Internet is studied by the method of data analysis. Round-trip time between a local host and a destination host through ten odd routers is measured using the Ping Command, i.e., doing echo experiment. It is found that the data are well described by the q-exponential destributions, which maximize the Tsallis entropy indexed by q less or larger than unity. The network is observed to itinerate over a series of the nonequilibrium stationary states characterized by Tsallis statistics.
