Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and computing system is provided for managing quality of experience for communication sessions. In an implementation, a method may include analyzing network conditions relative to a plurality of codecs and a plurality of network paths. The method may also include determining a quality of experience associated with each of the plurality of codecs across each of the plurality of network paths. The method may further include transacting communication traffic using a codec-network path combination having a quality of experience above a predetermined threshold.
