I. Introduction
The accurate prediction and analysis of network traffic are one of the cornerstones of efficient network management, effecting proactive strategies to prevent congestion and improving performance. Most traditional approaches are based on real-life traffic data, which can sometimes be very hard to obtain and not representative enough to capture all kinds of scenarios occurring on a network. This work presents a new, integrated framework that synergistically merges synthetic data generation, state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, and interactive visualization tools as a means to address these challenges. The configured wide spectrum of synthetic network environments and traffic patterns will be used to train the predictive models, which eventually provide the fine-grained understanding into performance. It provides integration with an interactive visualization interface, enabling real-time analysis and fully engaging users for a complete network management and optimization package.
