Hi folks, I'm currently working on a research project for my Ph.D in which I need to simulate network traffic during long periods of inactivity on mobile Internet tablets. One focus application would be Jabber, and I was wondering what would be the traffic pattern for a scenario in which a Jabber client is running on a mobile Internet tablet for long periods of inactivity (e.g. no data traffic, just presence traffic). Given that I could not find any relevant literature in such subject, I'm posting in this forum asking for help. In fact, what I need is the traffic characterization for Jabber presence traffic, and I'm not really concerned about Jabber messaging traffic, because the idea is to simulate a network scenario with a connection between a Jabber client and a Jabber server. I know Jabber uses XMPP, but I couldn't find whether presence information was exchanged over TCP or UDP, for start. If it is TCP, I would like to know whether this TCP connection is "persistent" (kept open for as long as the user is logged on the server") or "temporary" (opened each time the users updates its status on the server and/or the user requests an update on the status of the contacts list). Also, if anybody has knowledge of related works on Jabber traffic characterization and would like to share, it would be really valuable.
