A self-similar object is exactly, or approximately, similar to a part of itself. Many objects in the real world, such as coastlines, are statistically self-similar: parts of them show the same statistical properties at many scales. |

Self-similarity is a property of fractals. Self-similarity has important consequences for the design of computer networks, as typical network traffic has self-similar properties. This property means that simple models using a [Poisson distribution]? are inaccurate, and networks designed without taking self-similarity into account are likely to function in unexpected ways. |
