On the Impact of End-User Device on Web QoE Inference from Encrypted Traffic IEEE International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNS M) nov. , DOI conference
    Web browsing is one of the key applications of the Internet, if not t he most important one. We address the problem of Web Quality-of-Experience (QoE) mo nitoring from the ISP perspective, relying on in-network, passive measurements. As a proxy to Web QoE, we focus on the analysis of the well-known SpeedIndex (SI) metr ic. Given the lack of application-level-data visibility introduced by the wide adop tion of end-to-end encryption, we resort to machine-learning models to infer the SI and the QoE level of individual web-page loading sessions, using as input only pac ket- and flow-level data. In this paper, we study the impact of different end-user device types (e.g., smartphone, desktop, tablet) on the performance of such models. Empirical evaluations on a large, multi-device, heterogeneous corpus of Web-QoE me asurements for the most popular websites demonstrate that the proposed solution can infer the SI as well as estimate QoE ranges with high accuracy, using either packe t-level or flow-level measurements. In addition, we show that the device type adds a strong bias to the feasibility of these Web-QoE models, putting into question the applicability of previously conceived approaches on single-device measurements. To improve the state of the art, we conceive cross-device generalizable models operat ing at both packet and flow levels, offering a feasible solution for Web-QoE monito ring in operational, multi-device networks. To the best of our knowledge, this is t he first study tackling the analysis of Web QoE from encrypted network traffic in m ulti-device scenarios.

    Quality of Experience (QoE) inference, and particularly the detection of its degradation is an important management tool for ISPs. Yet, this task is mad e difficult due to widespread use of encryption on the data-plane on the one hand s o that measuring QoE is hard, and to the ephemeral properties of the web content on the other hand so that changes in QoE indicators may be rooted in changes in prope rties of the content itself, more than being caused by network-related events. In t his paper, we phrase the QoE degradation detection issue as a change point detectio n problem, that we tackle by leveraging a unique dataset consisting on several hund reds thousands browsing sessions spanning multiple months. Our results, beyond show ing feasibility, warn about the exclusive use of QoE indicators that are very close to content, as changes in the content space can lead to false alarms that are not tied to network-related problems.

    Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have a lot to gain from estimating the Web browsing quality of their customers. However, unlike Content Providers (CPs) who can easily access in-browser computed application-level metrics to estimate Web browsing quality, ISPs come short mainly because of traffic encryption. In this paper, we use exact methods and machine learning to estimate well-known application-level Web browsing QoS metrics (such as SpeedIndex and Page Load Time) from raw encrypted streams of network traffic. Particularly, we present and open-source a unique dataset targeting a large set of popular pages (Alexa top-500), from probes from several ISPs networks, browsers software (Chrome, Firefox) and viewport combinations, for over 200,000 experiments. Our results show our models to be accurate, and we particularly focus on their ability to generalize to previously unseen conditions, giving guidance concerning their retraining

    Web browsing is one of the most popular applications for both deskto p and mobile users. A lot of effort has been devoted to speedup the Web, as well as in designing metrics that can accurately tell whether a webpage loaded fast or not . An often implicit assumption made by industrial and academic research communities is that a single metric is sufficient to assess whether a webpage loaded fast. In this paper we collect and make publicly available a unique dataset which contains w ebpage features (eg number and type of embedded objects) along with both objective and subjective Web quality metrics. This dataset was collected by crawling over 100 websites–representative of the top 1,000,000 websites in the Web — while crowds ourcing 6,000 user opinions on user perceived page load time (uPLT). We show that t he uPLT distribution is often multi-modal and that, in practice, no more than three modes are present. The main conclusion drawn from our analysis is that, for comple x webpages, each of the different objective QoE metrics proposed in the literature (such as AFT, TTI, PLT, etc.) is suited to approximate one of the different uPLT mo des.

    The Web is one of the most successful Internet applications. Yet, the quality of Web users’ experience is still largely impenetrable. Whereas Web performance is typically studied with contro lled experiments, in this work we perform a large-scale study of a real site, Wikipedia, explicitly asking (a small fraction of its) users for feedback on the browsing experience. The analys is of the collected feedback reveals that 85% of users are satisfied, along with both expected (e.g., the impact of browser and network connectivity) and surprising findings (e.g., absence o f day/night, weekday/weekend seasonality) that we detail in this paper. Also, we leverage user responses to build supervised data-driven models to predict user satisfaction which, despite in cluding state-of-the art quality of experience metrics, are still far from achieving accurate results (0.62 recall of negative answers). Finally, we make our dataset publicly available, hope fully contributing in enriching and refining the scientific community knowledge on Web users’ QoE.

    Pervasive encryption makes it hard for ISPs to manage their network. Yet, to avoid user churn at times of shrinking revenues, ISPs must be able to assess the quality of experience they are delivering to their customers. The case of the Web is particularly complex, with a plethora of recently proposed in-browser metrics that aim at capturing the page visual rendering quality (e.g. Above the Fold and SpeedIndex). In this demo, we showcase that such metrics can be estimated quite accurately just from streams of encrypted packets, using classic supervised learning techniques

    In 2012, Google introduced the Speed Index (SI) metric to quantify the speed of the Web page visual completeness for the actually displayed above-the-fold (ATF) portion of a Web page. In Web browsing a page might appear to the user to be already fully rendered, even though further content may still be retrieved, resulting in the Page Load Time (PLT). This happens due to the browser progressively rendering all objects, part of which can also be located below the browser window’s current viewport. The SI metric (and variants) thereof have since established themselves as a de facto standard in Web page and browser testing. While SI is a step in the direction of including the user experience into Web metrics, the actual meaning of the metric and especially its relationship between Speed Index and Web QoE is however far from being clear. The contributions of this paper are thus to first develop an understanding of the SI based on a theoretical analysis and second, to analyze the interdependency between SI and MOS values from an existing public dataset. Specifically, our analysis is based on two well established models that map the user waiting time to a user ACR-rating of the QoE. The analysis show that ATF-based metrics are more appropriate than pure PLT as input to Web QoE models.

    Page load time (PLT) is still the most common application Quality of Service (QoS) metric to estimate the Quality of Experience (QoE) of Web users. Yet, recent literature abounds with proposals for alternative metrics (e.g., Above The Fold, SpeedIndex and their variants) that aim at better estimating user QoE. The main purpose of this work is thus to thoroughly investigate a mapping between established and recently proposed objective metrics and user QoE. We obtain ground truth QoE via user experiments where we collect and analyze 3,400 Web accesses annotated with QoS metrics and explicit user ratings in a scale of 1 to 5, which we make available to the community. In particular, we contrast domain expert models (such as ITU-T and IQX) fed with a single QoS metric, to models trained using our ground-truth dataset over multiple QoS metrics as features. Results of our experiments show that, albeit very simple, expert models have a comparable accuracy to machine learning approaches. Furthermore, the model accuracy improves considerably when building per-page QoE models, which may raise scalability concerns as we discuss.

    This work focuses on the evaluation of Web quality of experience as perceived by actual users and in particular on the impact of HTTP/1 vs HTTP/ 2. We adopt an experimental methodology that uses real web pages served through a realistic testbed where we control network, protocol, and application configur ation. Users are asked to browse such pages and provide their subjective feedbac k, which we leverage to obtain the Mean Opinion Score (MOS), while the testbed r ecords objective metrics. The collected dataset comprises over 4,000 grades that we explore to tackle the question whether HTTP/2 improves users experience, to what extent, and in which conditions. Findings show that users report marginal d ifferences, with 22%, 52%, 26% of HTTP/2 MOS being better, identical, or wors e than HTTP/1, respectively. Even in scenarios that favor HTTP/2, results are no t as sharp as expected. This is in contrast with objective metrics, which instea d record a positive impact with HTTP/2 usage. This shows the complexity of under standing the web experience and the need to involve actual users in the quality assessment process.

    HTTP/2 is reality: services adopt it and researchers measure and optimize performance – yet, the actual impact on users’ web browsing experience is unclear. This work focuses on the comparison of HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 as perceived by the user. We adopt an experimental methodology, where popular web pages are served through a testbed that allows us to control network, protocol and application configuration. We ask users to browse actual web pages and provide their subjective feedback, i.e., the Mean Opinion Score (MOS), while we record objective metrics. We collect a dataset, that will be made available to the community, accounting for several thousands MOS grades, and leverage it to tackle the question whether HTTP/2 is better than HTTP/1.1 as far as user experience is concerned. We find that, despite differences can be seen from objective metrics, (i) users report much smaller differences. Additionally, we show how (ii) MOS is poorly correlated with any objective metric, to the point that (iii) accurately predicting MOS from objective metrics is a real challenge. At last, (iv) when trying to correlate how different factors (e.g., network configuration, page characteristics, etc.) contribute to the quality of experience, we observe much less clear results than when observing objective metrics.

    The World Wide Web is still among the most prominent Internet applications. While the Web landscape has been in perpetual movement since the very beginning, these last few years have witnessed some noteworthy proposals such as SPDY, HTTP/2 and QUIC which could disrupt the Web status quo and profoundly reshape the protocols family at application layer. Technically solid means are clearly needed to assess whether these new protocols can keep their promises: The risk is that these new protocols could otherwise fail to be adopted. While this investigation is already under way, both the industry and the research community are in our opinion expressing the right question, to which they however answer using the wrong tools. Over the years, webpages have grown to quite complex entities including hundreds of objects of several types, sharded over many domains. Yet, the current practice is to express Web Quality of Experience (QoE) via the document completion time (onLoad) despite its known inaccuracy and poor correlation with the actual user experience. At the same time, while better metrics do exist (e.g., the SpeedIndex, proposed by Google in 2012), they are complex to evaluate and require a prohibitive amount of computing resources (i.e., record filmstrips of the visual rendering in the browser). As such, their use is limited to lab experiments, but have to date failed to catch up in larger scale. Fortunately, there is a way out of this impasse: as it often happens, once found, the solution is very simple and elegant.

    We present a study of web user behavior when network performance decreases causing the increase of page transfer times. Real traffic measurements are analyzed to infer whether worsening network conditions translate into greater impatience by the user, which translates in early interruption of TCP connections. Several parameters are studied, to gather their impact on the interruption probability upon web transfers: times of day, file size, throughput and time elapsed since the beginning of the download. Results presented try to paint a picture of the complex interactions between user perception of the Web and network-level events.
