Perfil de Uso de Aplicativos Móveis: Caracterização e Aplicações
Resumo
O grande volume de dados gerados pelos avanços das tecnologias móveis tem feito com que os provedores de serviço se interessem cada vez mais pela sua coleta e análise. Neste trabalho, um conjunto de dados real e de larga escala relacionado ao uso detalhado de aplicativos móveis é investigado pela primeira vez com o objetivo de se identificar padrões de acesso, de tráfego de dados, de tempo de uso e de transição entre serviços. Além da caracterização, este trabalho contribui com a comunidade científica em outras duas frentes. Primeiramente, foi proposto e validado um modelo para geração de dados sintéticos, que poderá ser adotado por outros pesquisadores. Além disso, foi possível avaliar as métricas relevantes para a predição do próximo aplicativo a ser utilizado, o que permite a prévia preparação de algum aplicativo para reduzir o tempo de espera dos usuários, aumentando a sua satisfação.
