[LARTC] QoS with Artifficial Intelligence

[Chris Bennett]

I'm not sure what you mean by AI.  I suppose you could mean that you're 
going to feed various QoS parameters into a neural net and "teach" the 
neural net to vary the parameters according to conditions... but somehow I 
think it unlikely that this is what you mean.

What is the specific situation you're trying to deal with, and what exactly 
are you referring to when you say maximum performance?

Another person recently asked about how to implement QoS in a heavily 
oversubscribed environment, for example.  If, even during the times when the 
network is overburdened, there is always at least enough bandwidth to handle 
the high priority latency sensitive data (possibly a big assumption), I 
suggested the possibility of monitoring a steady ping to see when the 
buffers fill and the ping value skyrockets.  At that time, a QoS script 
could be run that would assume a lesser bandwidth rate, and hopefully slow 
up lower priority traffic and cause the buffer to empty in short order.  In 
this way one might be able to maintain at least somewhat reliable level of 
low latency, while still trying to maximize the use of the dynamic 
bandwidth....  a sort of "artificial intelligence".

You could be talking about something completely different, so perhaps you 
could provide more information about what specific situation you are dealing 
with?
