I recall in Uni that we used te Poisson distribution and some mathematical formulae to say that if we have x people arrive per hour at a phone booth, and the average phone call is y minutes, we would need z phone booths to ensure that 95% of the time, people don't have to wait (or only have to wait xx minutes).
Transposing this to application budgeting, I have an application at a remote site which has a max of 5 concurrent users and the worst transaction they do will hog the 64kbps line for 30 seconds (if it is the only transaction). My question is without revising my lecture notes, what software would help me determine what bandwidth to allocate this application so that 95% (or whatever) of the time the transaction can be completed in yy seconds? Is there any good software out there which would help me with this?
