Abstract
We observe 1/f-type noise in packet density fluctuations and round tri p time sequences of packets in Internet computer network traffic, The method of IDL (interval distribution of level set) is applied to analy ze the 1/f-type power-spectra. A simple dynamic phase transition model , the contact process, is introduced to explain the intermittent packe t density fluctuation.
