A chapter in Complexity and Diversity, 1997, pp 55-57 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The diversity of entropy, as a measure of complexity, for data traffic on Internet has been studied. We also calculated the measure of artificial sequences, such as periodic, random, mixed, cellular automata generated and logistic map generated sequences, to compare with that of data traffic on the Internet. As a result, we find, the measure of data traffic is larger than those produced by other artificial sequences.
