Homework ? You mean the question is at a high level. I use R. It is just the simulation part that I am investigating. Several papers on Capacity Planning that I am working on are useful for analyzing log traffic using R for GOF tests etc. But I am not able to find many papers on using R or r-java to generate traffic that simulates distributions. SciPY could be useful here but it looks like interfacing R and Java can help.
Maybe I am on the wrong track here but the only other option seems to be expensive simulators.
