Abstract

A method and system is disclosed for controlling communication behavior of application programs running on a user equipment device (UE) based on joint consideration of predicted roaming and predicted communication behavior of the application programs. A UE may monitor its operational state data during times when it is operating in a wireless network of a home service provider and during other times when it is roaming in a wireless network of a different service provider, and apply the monitored operational state data to a roaming prediction model configured for predicting future roaming state. The UE may also monitor communication behavior data of resident application programs, and apply the monitored communication behavior data to an application-communication prediction model configured for predicting future communication behavior of the applications. The UE may then control communication behavior of the application programs based on the roaming prediction model and the application-communication prediction model.
