Remote management systems and apparatuses for CWMP and methods for improving performance of remote management thereof

A method for improving performance of remote management for use in a server, wherein the server remotely manages at least one customer premises equipment (CPE) and the server and the CPE are both supporting Customer premises equipment WAN Management Protocol (CWMP), comprising:

• providing a table, wherein the table comprises a forecasted processing time for each responsive CWMP command of a plurality of predetermined data models which are CWMP-supported;
• receiving a request from the at least one CPE and generating a command configuration document according to the request;
• forecasting and obtaining, by a forecast ranking engine of the server, a first processing time according to the command configuration document by a table lookup operation performed with the table and obtaining a ranking value according to the forecasted first processing time and a maximum waiting time (MWT) corresponding to the request to determine a processing order in the server for the request;
• dynamically adjusting and arranging, by a processing order determination module of the server, the processing order for processing the request in the server according to the ranking value generated by the forecast ranking engine to perform a management on the CPE;
• and
• processing, by the server, the request from the at least one CPE according to the processing order,
• wherein the method further comprises:
• obtaining a second processing time after execution of commands of the request has been completed and determining whether to adjust the first processing time corresponding to the command configuration document according to the second processing time,
• wherein the step of determining whether to adjust the first processing time corresponding to the command configuration document according to the second processing time further comprises:
• comparing whether a difference between the first processing time and the second processing time has exceeded a predetermined threshold value;
• and
• utilizing the second processing time to adjust the first processing time when the difference between the first processing time and the second processing time has exceeded the predetermined threshold value.

A remote-performance-management apparatus configured between a server and at least one customer premises equipment (CPE), wherein the server and the CPE are both supporting Customer premises equipment WAN Management Protocol (CWMP), comprising:

• a table, wherein the table comprises a forecasted processing time for each responsive CWMP command of a plurality of predetermined data models which are CWMP-supported;
• and
• a processing module, upon receiving a request from the at least one CPE, generating, by a forecast ranking engine of the processing module, a command configuration document according to the request, forecasting and obtaining a first processing time according to the command configuration document by a table lookup operation performed with the table, generating, by the forecast ranking engine, a ranking value according to the forecasted first processing time and a maximum waiting time (MWT) corresponding to the request, and transmitting, by an output module of the processing module, the ranking value to the server,
• such that the server performs a management on the CPE according to the ranking value, wherein the management comprises dynamically adjusts a processing order in the server for the request according to the ranking value,
• wherein the processing module further comprises an adjustment module for obtaining a second processing time after execution of commands of the request has been completed and determining whether to adjust the first processing time corresponding to the command configuration document in the table according to the first processing time and the second processing time by comparing whether a difference between the first processing time and the second processing time has exceeded a predetermined threshold value, and when the difference between the first processing time and the second processing time has exceeded the predetermined threshold value, utilizing the second processing time to adjust the first processing time.
