Patent ID: 10592992

Abstract:
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for calculating network component value information. In use, network user information is received that is related to a plurality of network users in connection with at least one network. Such plurality of network users are organized into segments of network users, based on the network user information. Further, network usage charge information is identified that is related to charges for network usage over a predetermined amount of time, for at least one of the segments of network users. Also identified is network usage information related to network usage over the predetermined amount of time, for the at least one segment of network users. Based on this information, revenue rate information is calculated. Still yet, network component usage information is identified that is related to at least one of a plurality of network components of the at least one network utilized in connection with the network usage over the predetermined amount of time, for the at least one segment of network users. To this end, network component value information is calculated that is associated with the at least one network component of the at least one network utilized in connection with the network usage over the predetermined amount of time. Further, such network component value information calculation is based on the revenue rate information and the network component usage information, for output purposes.
