QUALITY OF SERVICE MANAGEMENT FOR DYNAMIC INSTANTIATION OF NETWORK SLICES AND/OR APPLICATIONS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
assigning respective quality of service levels to portions of a communication session associated with a service; and
based on the respective quality of service levels, provisioning network application resources for a network slice of a network, wherein the network slice comprises a virtual replication of resources of the network that are employable to enable the service, and wherein traffic associated with the communication session is to be directed to the network slice.

Abstract
Network and/or application resources can be dynamically instantiated based on quality of service (QoS) data. In one aspect, different QoS levels can be assigned for different segments of a content delivery session, for example, based on subscription and/or policy data. Further, the QoS levels can be varied in response to changes in user experience and/or expectation. Furthermore, core network slices can be instantiated and/or updated based on the QoS levels.

11. A method, comprising:
-
partitioning, by a system comprising a processor, a communication session associated with a service, wherein the partitioning results in generation of a first portion of the communication session and a second portion of the communication session; assigning, by the system, a first quality of service level to the first portion and a second quality of service level to the second portion, wherein the first quality of service level is different from the second quality of service level; based on the first quality of service level, instantiating a first network slice of a network, wherein the first network slice comprises a first virtual replication of resources of the network that are employable to enable the service, and wherein first traffic associated with the first portion is directed to the first network slice; and based on the second quality of service level, instantiating a second network slice of the network, wherein the second network slice comprises a second virtual replication of resources of the network that are employable to enable the service, and wherein second traffic associated with the second portion is directed to the second network slice. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
in response to receiving, from a user equipment coupled to a network device of a network, request data indicative of a request for a service, determining segments of a communication session associated with the service; determining respective quality of service levels for the segments; and based on the respective quality of service levels, provisioning network application resources for a network slice of the network, wherein the network slice comprises a virtual replication of resources of the network that are employable to enable the service, and wherein traffic associated with the communication session is to be directed to the network slice. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
