Cifre contract on Throughput Prediction in Mobile Networks

Participant : Yann Busnel.

This is a Cifre contract (2015-2018) including a PhD thesis supervision (PhD of Alassane Samba), done with Orange, on cooperation in statistical approaches for the prediction of throughput without history. Throughput has a strong impact on user experience in cellular networks. The ability to predict the throughput of a connection, before it starts, bring new possibilities, particularly to the Internet service providers. They could adapt contents to the quality of service really reachable by users, in order to enhance their experience.
