Abstrack - Bandwidth management at internet service providers is something that must  implement, to avoid bandwidth struggles between clients, and to minimize the waste of available bandwidth. The method used in bandwidth management, including Simple Queue, Queue Treed and Hierarchical Tocken Bucket (HTB) In this method,  the rule will be arranged in a hierarchy consisting of parent rules and child rules. The parent rule will be the parent of all child rules below it. QoS analysis applied to Mikrotik RB951 and Ubuntu Linux based computers, then compare the results of QoS (Quality of Service) between the two devices. The author conducted QoS testing for ten days, two times in 1 day, namely the time of day and night. The best results I get are in the Queue Tree with a final score of 13, While Simple Queue, and HTB with the same value, which is 12.

Video on demand (VoD) services such as YouTube have generated considerable volumes of Internet traffic in homes and buildings in recent years. While Internet service providers deploy fiber and recent wireless technologies such as 802.11ax to support high bandwidth requirement, the best-effort nature of 802.11 networks and variable wireless medium conditions hinder users from experiencing maximum quality during video streaming. Hence, Internet service providers (ISPs) have an interest in monitoring the perceived quality of service (PQoS) in customer premises in order to avoid customer dissatisfaction and churn. Since existing approaches for estimating PQoS or quality of experience (QoE) requires external measurement of generic network performance parameters, this paper presents a novel approach to estimate the PQoS of video streaming using only 802.11 specific network performance parameters collected from wireless access points. This study produced datasets comprising 802.11n/ac/ax specific network performance parameters labelled with PQoS in the form of mean opinion scores (MOS) to train machine learning algorithms. As a result, we achieved as many as 93–99% classification accuracy in estimating PQoS by monitoring only 802.11 parameters on off-the-shelf Wi-Fi access points. Furthermore, the 802.11 parameters used in the machine learning model were analyzed to identify the cause of quality degradation detected on the Wi-Fi networks. Finally, ISPs can utilize the results of this study to provide predictable and measurable wireless quality by implementing non-intrusive monitoring of customers’ perceived quality. In addition, this approach reduces customers’ privacy concerns while reducing the operational cost of analytics for ISPs.

<p>In this work, we present an economic model of computer networks that describes the in-teraction between Internet Service Providers (ISP ), customers and content provider. The competition between ISP s may be translated by the prices they require and the qualities of service (QoS) they offer. The customer demand for service from an ISP does not only de-pend on the price and quality of service (QoS) of the ISP , but it is influenced by all those offered by its competitors. This behavior has been extensively analyzed using game the-ory as a decision support tool. We interpret a non-neutral network when a content provider privileges ISP s by offering them more bandwidth to ensure proper QoS to support ap-plications that require more data transport capacity (voice over internet protocol (V OIP ) the live video streaming, online gaming). In addition, our work focuses on the price game analysis and QoS between ISP s in two cases: neutral network and non-neutral network. After showing the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium in terms of quality of service, we analyzed the impact of net neutrality on competition between ISP s. We also validated our theoretical study with numerical results, which show that the game has an equilibrium point which depends on all the parameters of the system.</p>

This study presents the proposed testbed implementation for the Advanced Technology Training Center (ADTEC) Batu Pahat, one of Malaysia’s industrial training institutes. The objectives of this study are to discover the issues regarding network congestion, propose a suitable method to overcome such issues, and generate output data for the comparison of the results before and after the proposed implementation. The internet is directly connected to internet service providers (ISPs), which neither impose any rule nor filter the traffic components; all connections comply on the basis of the base effort services provided by the ISP. The congestion problem has been raised several times and the information technology (IT) department has been receiving complaints about poor and sometimes intermittent internet connection. Such issues provide some ideas for a possible solution because the end client is a human resource core business. In addition, budget constraints contribute to this problem. After a comprehensive review of related literature and discussion with experts, the implementation of quality of service through add-on rules, such as traffic policing on network traffic, was proposed. The proposed testbed also classified the traffic. Results show that the proposed testbed is stable. After the implementation of the generated solution, the IT department no longer receives any complaints, and thus fulfills the goal of having zero internet connection issues.

This study is an attempt to measure the attitude of customers towards the wireless Internet services in Bangladesh based on the Mertin Fishbein’s multi attribute attitude model. Some salient attributes (i.e., speed, bandwidth fluctuation rate) of WIMAX based and EDGE/EVDO based Internet services that affect the attitude of the customers have been selected which customers emphasizes to take purchase-decision as well as usage continuation decision. Two types of wireless Internet service providers (WIMAX and EDGE/EVDO) and ten salient attributes have been considered for this study. It has been found from the study that customers form more positive attitude towards WIMAX based Internet service than EDGE/EVDO based service. Observed differences in mean attitude of different attributes for the two categories of wireless Internet services are measured through Z-test to test the significance of those differences. Findings of this study may be used as an index by the Internet service providers for improvement of their services to satisfy the customers.Key words: Wireless Internet; Customer Attitude; WIMAX; EDGE; EVDODOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbt.v6i1.9994  Journal of Technology (Dhaka) Vol. 6(1), January-June, 2011 49-60

Conforme os processos pessoais (entretenimento, financeiros, segurança, etc.), suportados por uma gama crescente de dispositivos (TVs, celulares, câmeras, etc.), convergem para serviços oferecidos através da Internet of Things (IoT), os quesitos de Quality of Experience (QoE), segurança e privacidade das Local Area Networks (LANs) residenciais aumentam em complexidade (quantidade, variedade e conflitos entre aplicações e requisitos). Nesse contexto, clientes podem demandar de seus Internet Service Providers (ISPs) soluções para problemas originados em suas LANs. Porém, ISPs enfrentam desafios para atender tal demanda de maneira escalável (i.e. padronizada, em contraste com meios ad-hoc). Objetivamos realizar uma ponte entre as soluções existentes e o mercado para superar especificidades regionais como aspectos financeiros (e.g. custo total de propriedade), legais (e.g. marco legal da Internet Brasileira) e sociais (e.g. conhecimento tecnológico de clientes e técnicos de ISPs) rumo à delegação escalável (i.e. padronizada entre clientes), segura (e.g. controlada e auditável) de gerenciamento de LANs para ISPs. Nossa visão é simplificar ao máximo (i.e. modelo On/Off com temporizador) o processo de delegação de gerência para minimizar custos (hardware, software e treinamento) e facilitar a compreensão dos envolvidos sobre os compromissos de segurança (controle e auditabilidade) envolvidos e assim viabilizar inovação nas bordas da Internet.

Atualmente, a Internet faz parte do cotidiano das pessoas, sendo um meio de comunicação essencial. Contudo, esta sofre de limitações que a impedem de garantir Qualidade de Serviço (Quality of Service QoS) aos usuários. Portanto, os Provedores de Internet (Internet Service Providers ISPs) necessitam evoluir, adicionando novas tecnologias e estratégias de gerência, tais como Virtualização de Redes (Network Virtualization NV), Redes Definidas por Software (Software Defined Network SDN) e Virtualização de Funções de Rede (Network Function Virtualization NFV), criando a idéia de Provedores de Internet do Futuro (Future Internet Service Providers FISPs). Sendo assim, os FISPs fatiam os recursos de rede dentre os clientes e os serviços prestados, onde torna-se crucial um algoritmo para definir a alocação das fatias de rede. Adicionalmente, os FISPs devem considerar a utilização elástica dos recursos de rede pelos clientes ao decorrer do dia. Dentro deste contexto, este artigo apresenta o algoritmo Per Time Calculation (PETIC) para definir o fatiamento da rede baseado nos requisitos de largura de banda dos clientes. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o algoritmo proposto define fatias de rede mais adequadas que as abordagens existentes.
