1. A computing device comprising:
- a processor;
a plurality of self-organizing network (SON) tools; and
a SON engine configured to be operated by the processor and to execute the SON tools, the SON engine further being configured to;
receive performance information associated with performance of an operations support system (OSS) node;
determine that a plurality of messages from a plurality of SON tools are ready for transmission to the OSS node, wherein at least two messages of the plurality of messages are associated with (i) different ones of the plurality of SON tools having different priorities or (ii) different ones of a plurality of parameters having different priorities; and
limit transmission of the plurality of messages based at least in part on the performance information and on (i) priorities of the plurality of SON tools or (ii) priorities of parameters.

Abstract
Described herein are techniques for limiting transmission of plurality of messages from one or more self-organizing network (SON) tools to a network support node based at least in part on performance information and on either or both of priorities associated with the plurality of messages or priorities associated with the SON tool(s). The performance information is associated with performance of a network support node.

12. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having stored thereon a plurality of programming instructions configured to be executed by a computing device implementing a SON tool to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving performance information associated with performance of a network support node; determining that a plurality of messages from the SON tool are ready for transmission to the network support node, wherein at least two messages of the plurality of messages are associated with different priorities; and limiting transmission of the plurality of messages based at least in part on the performance information and on priorities associated with the plurality of messages. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
