Am- ong them, the characteristics of Multimedia Mes- saging Service （MMS） have not yet been fully understood. In this paper, with the help of a cloud computing platform, we investigated the flow-level charactefistcs of Chinese MMS. All of the experimental data were collected by the TMS equipment deployed in a major node in Sou- them China. The collection time spanned six mo- nths. We performed high-level analysis to show the basic distributions of MMS characteristics. Then, by analysing the detailed MMS features, we determined the distribution of personal MMS, and made a comprehensive comparison between 2G and 3G MMS. Finally, we tried to build a model on the personal MMS inter-arrival time, and we found that the Weibull distribution was optimum.展开更多
