摘要: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method in which a processing system generates a mapping record including static mapping data for cells in a communication network and user equipment devices associated with those cells. The method also includes obtaining cell load data representing video content distributed to the cells from the processing system; determining, based on the cell load data, that a cell is congested; identifying user equipment devices associated with the congested cell; and performing, for each of the user equipment devices associated with the congested cell, a congestion shaping (CS) procedure that includes a shaping level for a video content flow associated with that user equipment device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

摘要: Network capacity planning based on application performance can include detecting a data session occurring on a network, identifying an application being used for the data session, where the application can include a video application, determining if a performance model for the video application exists, the performance model describing performance metrics and quality of service events associated with the video application, determining, based on the performance model, a capacity planning trigger for the video application, where the capacity planning trigger can include increasing network capacity based on the needs and a quality of service associated with the video application during the data session, and generating a command that, when executed by a network entity, causes the network entity to implement the capacity planning trigger on the network.

摘要: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying unselected video content items and preconfiguring playback views for unselected video content items. During a warm-up phase, access to the unselected video content items is precoordinated individually with a separate video player, manifests and license/key are retrieved in anticipation for possible selection for playback. Subsequent selection of one of the unselected video content items initiates playback responsive to selection without repeating any of the preconfiguring, preauthorizing or fetching. Other embodiments are disclosed.

摘要: Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for making a cache admission decision regarding a video chunk are described. For instance, a processing system including at least one processor may obtain a request for a first chunk of a first video, determine that the first chunk is not stored in a cache, and apply, in response to the determining that the first chunk is not stored in the cache, a classifier to predict whether the first chunk will be re-requested within a time horizon, where the classifier is trained in accordance with a set of features associated with a plurality of chunks of a plurality of videos. When it is predicted via the classifier that the first chunk will be re-requested within the time horizon, the processing system may store the first chunk in the cache.
