Embodiment Construction

[0013] This document refers to distributed coordinate systems, which can be exploited, inter alia, in a client / server processing model. More specifically, embodiments disclosed herein may advantageously use the network location of certain network devices for various purposes.

[0014] in total relative to figure 1 , 2A , 2B, 2C, 3A, 3B and 4, the client device can determine its position in the network system, such as network coordinates. A network system may include several landmark servers that act as "beacons" to enable a client device to self-locate, eg determine its own coordinates. The network system may also include several content servers. The client device can communicate with the content server through the network system and update its own location based on these communications.

[0015] in total relative to Figure 5 , 6 In the second scenario, exemplified by , and 7, network access via multiple interfaces is introduced. The client device may communicate with ...

Abstract

This document relates to a distributed network coordinate system. One implementation provides computer-readable storage media including instructions that may cause a processor to perform certain acts. For example, the acts may include storing an initial network location of a first device in a network. The network may include the first device and a second device. The acts may also include monitoring one or more network performance metrics related to existing application communications with the second device, and determining an updated network location of the first device, based on the initial network location and the network performance metrics. Aspects of network health can be derived from monitoring changes in the network locations of various devices within the coordinate system.

Description

Background technique [0001] The quality of user experience on a network can be greatly affected by conditions on the network, such as latency and available bandwidth between a user device and one or more servers. For example, in a highly interactive client-server application, a user at a client device may make repeated requests for content from a server. Even if there is sufficient bandwidth between the client device and the server to allow relatively quick transfer of large files, long wait times can contribute to a disappointing user experience in which the server does not appear to be responsive to the client device. Conversely, in client-server applications involving large data transfers but relatively few client-server interactions, short latencies do not overcome the shortcoming of insufficient bandwidth to provide acceptable transfer times for data. [0002] In many cases, a given online service may be associated with many servers capable of providing the online servic...
