Optimising virtual networks over time by using Windows Multiplicative DEA model

作者：

Highlights：

• Develop a fractal framework for virtual network optimisation and assessment;

• Introduce the windows multiplicative DEA model in the presence of ratio data;

• Show that devices on virtual networks have distinct fractal behaviour over time;

• Prediction of a virtual setting with higher and stable TCP performance by long time;

• The DEA results' dataset is available at URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.17632/776sjbz7z5.5.
