Abstract
The existence of a phase transition in a computer network model is ind icated by an abrupt change in packet density, critical slowing down an d fractal properties of the characteristic time series. The network op erates most efficiently in the vicinity of the critical point. (C) 199 8 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
