Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed that determine network parameters to be used by a wireless terminal. Network traffic history data is acquired. Each entry of the network traffic history data relates to network parameters of traffic flows between a network node and a wireless terminal. Which number of clusters to be used for representing the network traffic history data is determined by optimizing a generic utility function representing at least one network parameter of said network parameters of traffic flows. Each entry of the acquired network traffic history data is associated with one of the number of clusters by constrained clustering of the acquired network traffic history data. The constrained clustering uses a biased distance measure. Each cluster is associated with network parameters to be used by a wireless terminal based on the network traffic history data associated with each cluster.
