Study on relationship between QoS degradation and QoE for web services with personal digital assistant

摘要

This paper studies the effect of the QoS degradation on WebQoE with personal digital assistant (PDA) by experiment. In the experiment, the authors utilize three types of terminals: PDA, tablet PC and desktop PC; they assess QoE for two actual Web services. The experimental results show that the effect of QoS degradation on QoE with PDA is less than that of a desktop PC for one service. However, for the other service, little different between the effects is recognized. As a result, the paper confirms that the effect of QoS degradation on QoE depends on the type of a terminal.
