摘要： A method and apparatus for assessing the compatibility of a selected network feature with the network features of an existing telecommunications network 10 comprises providing an abstraction of each network feature in the form of a data model 100 which defmes the relationships between any network elements 12 or nodes 27, software elements 13 and software features 14 required for each network feature. Information 19 is then collected about the existing telecommunications network 10 to identity the deployment of the network features in the existing network. This information is then combined with the data model 100 to build a feature compatibility matrix 107 which defines the compatibility of network features in the existing telecommunications network 10. The matrix 107 can then be interrogated with information defining the parameters of the selected feature to be added or upgraded to determine whether the selected feature is compatible with features of the existing network.

摘要： A method for monitoring the performance of a media streaming service being used to deliver media streams to user equipment devices comprises the step of determining an encoding characteristic of a first media stream (201) being monitored. A functional dependency model is established between a first System Service Key Performance Indicator, S-KPI, and one or more Resource Service Key Performance Indicators, R-KPIs, for the first media stream (203). The established functional dependency model is used for monitoring a second media stream having the same encoding characteristic as the first media stream (205).

摘要： A method for monitoring performance of a service delivered to user equipment devices via a communications network as perceived by a user comprising the steps of collecting Resource Service Key Performance Indicators from network resources and collecting System Service Key Performance Indicators from a representative sample of reporting user equipment devices using the service. In the next step relationship between the collected values of R-KPIs and S-KPIs is determined and then userr equipment from the representative sample is clustered. In the following step non-reporting user equipment devices are assigned to the clusters and then the method comprises collecting R-KPIs from network resources to estimate S-KPI values based on the R-KPIs collected after determination of the relationship and the relationship.
