To provide a seamless service to thin client users the network connection between the client and the server must be dimensioned properly. In this paper we therefore characterize the traffic generated by different types of thin client users when working with popular office applications like Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint. We analyze the traffic patterns measured in our testbed environment and thus provide a basis for subsequent research studies as well as for administrators to estimate the amount and the characteristics of user generated traffic.
