Abstract
choosing the right node to measure is the key to success in large-scale networks; network modeling is a critical tool for detecting performance. The growing size and complexity of modern networks make accurately predicting their performance a crucial requirement for efficient and reliable operation. Numerous network modeling approaches, however, each with unique strengths and limitations, have emerged in response to this. This paper provides a comparative critique of these network modeling approaches and their performance prediction capabilities in large-scale networks. The first category is the analytical modeling approach, where mathematical equations represent network performance. An approach similar to the described process gives very accurate and detailed predictions but must rely on a theoretical understanding of how networks behave and the assumption of ideal networks. The second approach, simulation modeling, designs a virtual model of the network and lets you test it to predict its performance. This allows for greater flexibility, and real-world factors can be included in the heuristics; however, it is potentially very computationally intensive. The third method is machine learning, which involves algorithms that learn patterns in historical network data and create predictions. While this method is able to process intricate data sets and adjust to evolving network states, its precision relies heavily on the quality of the training data. © 2025 IEEE.
