Abstract: A network operating system receives a bundle file transmitted from a vendor terminal of a vendor providing a network service, the bundle file including first data defining a functional unit group that achieves the network service and second data defining a monitoring policy for the network service. The NOS constructs the functional unit group based on the first data of the bundle file when the network service is purchased by a purchaser. The NOS executes a monitoring process on the functional unit group based on information on the functional unit group to be constructed and the second data of the bundle file.

Abstract: Example embodiments are directed towards an open framework for an open framework for a universal orchestrator for a services platform in a 5G wireless network. The open framework provides a unified configuration-oriented template pattern and a built-in engine that enables recursive usage from multiple layers of service relay. This supports programmable and scalable network service with dynamic service updates and synchronization crossing network domains and service producers (e.g., network service vendors) while facilitating a northbound service innovation ecosystem by converting/mapping the technical oriented services to a general purpose user journey. The framework determines a plurality of applicable technical services for provisioning the network service request based on the mapping of the technical service categories and dependencies between technical services from different domain and infrastructure layer.

The subsequent network activity is then monitored in a pre-determined time frame and an associated pattern analyzed. A media content start event may then be detected based on the analysis of the pattern.
