DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/0314bd/the_mother_of_all) has announced the addition of the "The Mother of all Network Benchmark Tests. Volume 2 Quantifying the User Experience" report to their offering.
Volume 2 is critical for operators trying to understand how to market their broadband wireless service offering as well as how they should prioritize their network optimization activities.
Although mobile operators, industry pundits and most well-informed consumers understand the notion that a higher megabit-per-second throughput is preferable, the typical consumer is generally clueless when it comes to understanding what these obscure marketing messages really mean for the mobile Internet experience. Most operators recognize that they need to move away from the my pipe is bigger than your pipe marketing mentality, but it is easier said than done.
Mobile video, be it YouTube or Netflix, is driving mobile data growth and the capabilities of nextgeneration networks will only serve as an impetus to even higher data usage.
Key Topics Covered:
- Quantifying the user experience based on HTTP web page download times
- Popular websites, including Yahoo, CNN, iTunes, Amazon, YouTube, etc.
- Results down to the millisecond, based on device/chipset signaling messages
- Network/technology comparisons
- Comparisons based on network loading - same location over a 12-15 hour period of time
- Determining if perceived differences in network/technology performance have more to do with network loading than the actual capabilities of the network/technology itself
- Determining how the combination of throughput and latency impact the HTTP web page download time results
- 3 axis plot, showing maximum achievable throughput and network latency versus webpage load time and required throughput
- Which matters most - latency or throughput
- Does DC-HSDPA really offer a quantifiable benefit over HSPA+
- Determining the crossover point when higher throughput become irrelevant
- Quantifying the user experience based on downloading Google email attachments
- Quantifying the user experience based on downloading video and audio content from iTunes
- Determining the crossover point when higher throughput become irrelevant
- Netflix video streaming requirements
- Determining the chokepoints in the network (from end user to the original source of the content), how they vary as a function of loading, and their impact on the user experience
