INTELLIGENT CHARGING FOR SERVICES

The present invention discloses systems and methods for intelligently providing and charging for services on a network. A Service Controller aggregates usage history for a subscriber using a service on a network. An IICR consolidates the information into a subscriber profile and links the subscriber profile to community profiles or “segmentation” profiles. The Service Controller then seeks patterns in the subscriber profile, and adjusts the level of service for the subscriber based on said patterns. Services are dynamically provisioned and de-provisioned in real-time based on the subscriber's usage of the services, along with demographics and network conditions. Additionally, the subscriber is charged for the services based on his real-time use of the services and based on the Quality of Service (QoS) actually delivered.
