Predicting User Dissatisfaction with Application Performance on Home Gateways

چکیده
Home gateways connect devices in the home to the rest of the Internet. The gateway is ideally placed to adapt or control application performance to better fit the expectations of home users. However, it is not clear if we can infer user (dis)satisfaction with application performance with data available in a home gateway (i.e. mostly traffic metrics). Joumablatt et al. used machine learning methods to predict user (dis)satifaction with network application performance at end-hosts. In this paper, we study the feasibility of appying such predictors on a gateway. We show that we can measure the relevant metrics on a home gateway, we improve the proposed non-linear SVM predictor with parameter tuning, and we show that the gateway based predictor can achieve similar performance compared to the end-host predictor.

متن کاملAn autonomic approach to offer services in OSGi-based home gateways
The home IT environment is one the most promising areas for telecom operators. Nowadays, home area networks (HAN) are composed of a variety of heterogeneous devices, such as computers, webcams, sensors, set-top-boxes, etc. A key element in a HAN is the home gateway: a device managing the different networks in the home environment. But the management of this environment is a complex task, with a...

This thesis is structured around contributions in the areas of domestic and mobile networks. In the context of home networks, we deal with both home traffic characterization and application performance degradation. In the case of mobile networks, we are interested in understanding the relationship between wireless technology and contact opportunities among nodes on the move. We summarize the ma...
متن کاملTechniques for Distributed Intelligence and Internet Connectivity on Home Automation Networks
Home Automation introduces a range of interesting problems in distributed intelligence. In a home network consumer appliances are interconnected in an arbitrary manner by the end user. Each appliance must be capable of establishing its own network connection, configuring itself without user intervention and of interacting with other unknown devices on the home network. Furthermore, if a home ne...
