Extensive simulations for a basic twelve node network have been conducted. An empirical relation between the accumulated node delay variance and the end-to-end node delay variation is obtained for various simulation scenarios. This study has a direct practical purpose: the knowledge of end-to-end jitter allows network planners to design and dimension integrated data, voice and video networks.153 p.Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.Thesis
