Measurement and forecasting of traffic flow at telephone switching system / Othman Mahmud

For an organisation, forecasting plays an important role in planning. At Telecom Malaysia Berhad (TMB), the forecasting method is used to forecast some requirement such as telephone demand, subscriber demand, cable requirements,traffic flow and so on. The present technique of forecasting traffic flo...

This will involve the congestions for at least three months. The data for the whole Malaysia are converted by using database software known as NREC . This project is to forecast the traffic flow with the objective to avoid the congestions and rise up the Telecom revenue to save the budget and to help the planning division for their future plan.
