The invention relates to a method and apparatus for simulating a system in a communications network as a linear system in order to obtain a prediction of the load of a resource in the system. Measurements obtained at m different points in time of the event intensity aevent for a number n of key events occurring in a reference system are used to form the simulation model, together with measurements of the total load L in the reference system at the m different points in time. An optimization problem, defined by the simulation model and a set of event intensities of the system-to-be-predicted in a scenario to be simulated, is solved in order to obtain a prediction of a the total load of the system in the simulated scenario. |
