Abstract
Methods are provided for determining, based on input parameters associated with a computing device and a network over which the computing device is connected to another computing device (such as a server), suitable transport parameters for requesting and receiving data, where the transport parameters are determined for efficient transmission with less susceptibility to interruptions and delays. The input parameters may be provided continuously in order to determine, on a real-time or near real-time basis, continuously updated transport parameters. Transport parameters may be rewarded and/or punished based on historical network data. Accordingly, embodiments enable the computing device and/or server to dynamically adjust transport parameters to provide a data rate that is chosen to accommodate changing network conditions.
