Abstract
There is a trend toward the use of predictivesystems in communications networks. At the systems andnetwork management level predictive capabilities arefocused on anticipating network faults and performance degradation. Simultaneously, mobilecommunication networks are being developed withpredictive location and tracking mechanisms. Theinteractions and synergies between these systems presenta new set of problems. A new predictive network managementframework is developed and examined. The interactionbetween a predictive mobile network and the proposednetwork management system is discussed. The Rapidly Deployable Radio Network (RDRN) is used as aspecific example to illustrate theseinteractions.
