Abstract
A more efficient network can be achieved by using a cost-benefit analysis determined by mobile device, wireless network, and server device functionality. The cost-benefit analysis can be used to determine whether SPTCP or MPTCP or any combination of the two is used. The mobile device can generate the cost-benefit analysis based on known and unknown device and network metrics and send the cost-benefit analysis to the server device. The server device can then comply with the cost-benefit analysis and then send requested web site data via SPTCP and/or MPTCP in accordance with the cost-benefit analysis.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a network device comprising a processor, web site request data related to a request for a web site made by a mobile device;
- receiving, by the network device, preference data associated with sending web site data related to the web site request data via a Wi-Fi connection of the network device or via a cellular network connection of the network device;
- receiving, by the network device, resource data associated with the sending the web site data via the Wi-Fi connection of the network device or via the cellular network connection of the network device;
- analyzing, by the network device, the preference data and the resource data, resulting in analyzed data;
- and
- in response to a condition associated with the analyzed data being determined to have been satisfied, sending, by the network device, the web site data.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- receiving web site request data, related to a request for a web site made by a mobile device, via a Wi-Fi connection of the mobile device;
- receiving preference data, associated with sending web site data related to the web site request data, via the Wi-Fi connection of the mobile device;
- collecting resource data associated with the sending the web site data to the mobile device;
- and
- based on a result of analyzing the preference data and the resource data, transmitting first web site data of the web site data.
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- obtaining web site request data, related to a request for a web site made by a mobile device, via a Wi-Fi connection of the mobile device;
- receiving preference data, associated with sending web site data related to the web site request data, via the Wi-Fi connection of the mobile device, wherein the preference data comprises:
- a first power associated with the mobile device;
- and
- a radio state associated with the mobile device;
- generating resource data associated with the sending the web site data to the mobile device;
- analyzing the preference data and the resource data, resulting in analyzed data;
- and
- in response to a condition associated with the analyzed data being determined to have been satisfied, transmitting first web site data of the web site data.
