Description
Summary:This article presents a mathematical model for the traffic congestion caused by the interference due to a sudden increase in the number of users that access a social network at a given time. The rapid increase in the number of users causes a non-stationary traffic in the network, which can be modeled using a stochastic differential approach. An upper bound on the channel capacity is presented.
