Method For Modeling User Behavior In IP Networks
First Claim
1. A method of modeling user behavior in an IP network, comprising the steps of:
- allowing a testing user to create a behavior profile specifying one or more user activities from a plurality of user activities performed by a user over the IP network, and one or more bandwidth usage levels corresponding to the one or more user activities;
associating one or more applications from a plurality of applications with the one or more user activities;
emulating the behavior profile over the IP network by performing the one or more user activities using the one or more applications;
measuring a quality of experience (QoE) score for each user activity from the one or more user activities; and
combining the QoE score for each user activity from the one or more user activities and generating an overall QoE score for the behavior profile.

Abstract
A method of modeling user behavior in an IP network, comprising the steps of allowing a testing user to create a behavior profile specifying one or more user activities from a plurality of user activities performed by a user over the IP network, one or more bandwidth usage levels corresponding to the one or more user activities, and an importance level associated with each user activity; associating one or more applications from a plurality of applications with the one or more user activities; emulating the behavior profile over the IP network by performing the one or more user activities using the one or more applications; and measuring a quality of experience (QoE) score for each user activity from the one or more user activities.
