Abstract: A system and method for managing video streaming on a computer network based at least in part on a state of a video streaming traffic flow. The method includes: reviewing a traffic flow to determine whether the traffic flow is a video streaming traffic flow; if the traffic flow is a video streaming traffic flow, determine at least one video characteristic associated with the video streaming traffic flow; determining a state of the video streaming traffic flow; determining a priority of the video streaming traffic flow based on the characteristics and the state of the video streaming traffic flow; and allocating bandwidth to the video streaming traffic flow based on the priority; otherwise, if the traffic flow is not a video streaming traffic flow, allowing the traffic flow to continue with the traffic flow's current priority.

Abstract: A method and system for social media monitoring, the method including: collecting data associated with a social media upload; determining subscriber identity information associated with the social media upload; creating an IPDR based on the subscriber identity and social media upload data; receiving a query having at least one social media upload event; determining at least one subscriber identity that may be associated with the upload event; and providing the at least one subscriber identity as a result of the query. The system includes: a collection module configured to collect data; an analysis module configured to determine subscriber identity information and create an IPDR based on the subscriber identity and social media upload data; and a query module configured to receive a query having at least one social media upload event, determine at least one subscriber identity that may be associated with the upload event.

Abstract: A method for heuristic control of traffic management on a computer network, the method including: setting predetermined benchmarks for traffic; performing a traffic management control loop to determine at least one value of a quality of experience (QoE) metric, via a QoE measuring module, on the network based on the traffic flow; performing a heuristic control loop comprising: aggregating the at least one value of the QoE metric obtained from the traffic management control loop; determining a new benchmark based on the aggregation of the QoE metric, via a heuristic control module; and sending the new benchmark to the QoE measuring module.
