The simulation was performed with the OPNET simulation tool and considered a heterogeneous wireless environment where a mobile device could connect to both LTE (Long Term Evolution) and WLAN (wireless LAN) networks. We simulate various user-network association policies in such an environment with the goal of usage cost optimization under a Quality of Service (QoS) constraint. The results show that using a threshold-based online policy the network usage cost can be reduced significantly while remaining within the user’s QoS requirements. %G English %Z TC 6 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01587852/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01587852/file/978-3-642-23041-7_11_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01587852 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01587852 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-NETWORKING %~ IFIP-LNCS-6827
