Observed self-similarity phenomena at packet and flow levels can be explained by the interaction between high level traffic characteristics and the way link bandwidth is shared. We show in particular that long range dependence in the flow arrival process is due to the heavy-tailed nature of the distribution of the number of flows per session.
