Abstract: A system and method for automatically adjusting computing resources provisioned for a computer service or application by applying historical resource usage data to a predictive model to generate predictive resource usage. The predictive resource usage is then simulated for various service configurations, determining scaling requirements and resource wastage for each configuration. A cost value is generated based on the scaling requirement and resource wastage, with the cost value for each service configuration used to automatically select a configuration to apply to the service. Alternatively, the method for automatically adjusting computer resources provisioned for a service may include receiving resource usage data of the service, applying it to a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) to find an optimal stationary policy (treating the resource usage data as states and resource-provisioning variables as actions), and providing instructions for configuring the service based on the optimal stationary policy.

Abstract: A system and method may improve service setup time and reliability for user equipment (UE) fallback procedures in cellular networks. Logic in the UE may define an event to trigger a measurement report and send that measurement report to the base station upon initiating fallback procedures. This event and measurement report may allow the 5G base station (g-NB) to know which frequency is going to be the best choice at the time of setting up the voice service by looking at radio signal strength indicators coming from the 5G UE for each frequency in the measurement report. Incorporating the measurement report process into the logic of the UE for call setup that also includes the fallback process for may result in substantially faster call setup time as well as better voice call success rate.
