Patent ID: 10567467

Abstract:
A method for heuristic control of traffic management on a computer network, the method including: setting predetermined benchmarks for traffic; performing a traffic management control loop to determine at least one value of a quality of experience (QoE) metric, via a QoE measuring module, on the network based on the traffic flow; performing a heuristic control loop comprising: aggregating the at least one value of the QoE metric obtained from the traffic management control loop; determining a new benchmark based on the aggregation of the QoE metric, via a heuristic control module; and sending the new benchmark to the QoE measuring module. a system for heuristic control of traffic management on a computer network, the system including: a heuristic calibration module configured to set predetermined benchmarks for traffic; a QoE module configured to determine at least one value of a quality of experience (QoE) metric, on the network based on the traffic flow; an analysis module configured to aggregate the at least one value of the QoE metric obtained from the traffic management control loop; the heuristic calibration module further configured to determine a new benchmark based on the aggregation of the QoE metrics; and send the new benchmark to the QoE measuring module.
