摘要：Predicting the quality of a communication carried via a distributed computernetwork, such as the global Internet, before the initiation of that communication betweena pair of endpoints. A prediction system comprises software-implemented processes thatcan be implemented within an Internet gateway or in an external system that providesprediction results to an Internet gateway. A first process accepts historical data andcurrent environment data and, in response, generates a prediction of objectiveperformance characteristics. A second process accepts the objective performancecharacteristics and, in response, generates an estimate of the expected quality ofcommunications with an end user. This user quality estimate can be used to support adetermination of whether to proceed with the communication or to rely upon analternative to computer-network supported communications.
