Wac, Katarzyna Hilario, Melanie van Beijnum, Bert-Jan Bults, Richard Konstantas, Dimitri <jats:p>The success of emerging mobile services depends on the serviceability of the underlying wireless networks, expressed in terms of Quality of Service (QoS) provided by a network available to service user at a given geographical location and time. In general, this serviceability is a priori unknown. As a solution the authors propose a QoS-predictions service, providing predictions of QoS of networks available at a given user’s geographical location and time. In a case study they prove the feasibility of deriving predictions from historical data collected by a mobile service user. They have chosen this mobile user to be a patient, who uses a personalized health telemonitoring service in his daily environments for a period of one month. They consider the QoS-predictions service as a novel support for mobile services operational in 4G heterogeneous network environments.</jats:p> application/pdf https://sonar.ch/global/documents/113255 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.4018/978-1-61520-771-8.ch015 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Wireless Network Traffic and Quality of Service Support. - IGI Global. - 2010, p. 378-399 QoS-Predictions Service http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
