Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, at a computing device, first measurement data from a first device, wherein the first device is a first element of a communication path, and wherein the first measurement data corresponds to a first measured parameter associated with performance of the communication path; receiving, at the computing device, second measurement data from a second device, wherein the second device is a second element of the communication path, wherein the second measurement data corresponds to a second measured parameter associated with performance of the communication path, and wherein the second measured parameter is distinct from the first measured parameter; receiving, at the computing device, third measurement data from the second device, wherein the third measurement data corresponds to a third measured parameter associated with performance of a second communication path, and wherein the first device is not an element of the second communication path; determining a first service quality index value corresponding to performance of the communication path based on the first measurement data and the second measurement data; and determining a second service quality index value corresponding to performance of the second communication path based on the second measurement data and the third measurement data, wherein the first service quality index value is compared to the second service quality index value.
