Abstract
In some embodiments, a system and method for substantially real-time comparison of quality of interfaces by mobile devices over heterogeneous networks is disclosed. The method can be performed using a dynamic and rapid comparison by distributed hosts, using a minimal number of injected network packets, using minimal path quality metrics, which path quality metrics are independent of how a QoI is measured, and in a manner suitable for both wireline and wireless networks.
