Measured capacity of an Ethernet [PDF]

open access: yesACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review, 1988
Ethernet, a 10 Mbit/sec CSMA/CD network, is one of the most successful LAN technologies. Considerable confusion exists as to the actual capacity of an Ethernet, especially since some theoretical studies have examined operating regimes that are not characteristic of actual networks.

Converging measures of workload capacity [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2010
Does processing more than one stimulus concurrently impede or facilitate performance relative to processing just one stimulus? This fundamental question about workload capacity was surprisingly difficult to address empirically until Townsend and Nozawa (1995) developed a set of nonparametric analyses called systems factorial technology.

Measuring Wireless Links Capacity [PDF]

open access: yes2006 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing, 2006
Capacity of a link is a key metric for network design and management. Several tools for capacity measurement are present in the literature and they provide satisfying results when used over wired networks. Their performance over wireless links, however, is not as good, although the techniques they are based on should not suffer from changes at physical

Statistical measures for workload capacity analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Psychology, 2012
A critical component of how we understand a mental process is given by measuring the effect of varying the workload. The capacity coefficient (Townsend & Nozawa, 1995; Townsend & Wenger, 2004) is a measure on response times for quantifying changes in performance due to workload.
