Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) While using application on mobile terminals, it is said that user's QoE often degrades. There are several QoE improvement methods taken by users, such as Wi-Fi offload or closing background applications on terminals. However, each user is under different environment, so that an efficient way to improve QoE is also different by users.

In this study, we analyze quality factors of mobile applications, and establish methods for proposing way to improve QoE according to user's environment. We focus on web applications, which is one of the major purposes of using mobile terminals.

In our method, collecting waiting times and network conditions of many application users, we determine QoE degradation factors by referring to high QoE users. We evaluated our method from the effectivitiy of the network condition indicator and the accuracy of determining QoE degradation points.
