A method is provided for predicting and/or setting a lease time for packet-switched data communication network resources based on historical usage data of a network system provider subscriber. The packet-switched data communication network resources may include, but are not limited to, IP addresses
A method is provided for predicting and/or setting a lease time for packet-switched data communication network resources based on historical usage data of a network system provider subscriber. The packet-switched data communication network resources may include, but are not limited to, IP addresses and bandwidth. As a result, network resources may be allocated more prudently and network traffic may be reduced.

We claim: 1. A method of allocating network resources, comprising: referencing usage history data for a user requesting the network resources; comparing the usage history data for the user with a threshold of user history data for the network resources; allocating the network resources in accordance with the usage history data for the user if the usage history data satisfies the threshold; and allocating the network resources in accordance with average usage history data for a plurality of users of a network resource owning entity if the usage history data does not satisfy the threshold. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the allocating the network resources comprises modulating a parameter for allocating the network resources based on a current usage of the network resources. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource owning entity does not satisfy the threshold, the allocating the network resources comprises allocating the network resources in accordance with average usage history data for a network resource management entity managing the network resources for the network resource owning entity. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the network resources comprise an internet protocol address, and wherein the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address for a predetermined amount of time. 5. The method of claim 3, wherein the network resources comprise an internet protocol address having a predetermined corresponding bandwidth. 6. A method of allocating internet protocol addresses from a network resource owning entity, comprising: referencing usage history data on the network resource owning entity for a user requesting an internet protocol; and allocating the internet protocol address to the user having a lease-time defined in accordance with the usage history data for the user, wherein if the usage history data includes less than a threshold amount of usage history data for the user, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with average usage history data for the network resource owning entity. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the network resources include an internet protocol address having a predetermined corresponding bandwidth. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource owning entity includes less than a threshold value, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with average usage history data for a network resource management entity managing the network resources for the network resource owning entity. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource management entity is less than a second threshold value, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with a default allocation parameter. 10. The method of claim 6, wherein the threshold amount of usage history data for the user is dynamic. 11. A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for allocating network resources, the computer-executable instructions perform a method comprising: referencing usage history data for a user requesting the network resources; comparing the usage history data for the user with a threshold of user history data for the network resources; allocating the network resources in accordance with the usage history data for the user if the usage history data satisfies the threshold; and allocating the network resources in accordance with average usage history data for a plurality of users of a network resource owning entity if the usage history data does not satisfy the threshold. 12. The computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein the allocating the network resources comprises modulating a parameter for allocating the network resources based on a current usage of the network resources. 13. The computer-readable medium of claim 11, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource owning entity does not satisfy the threshold, the allocating the network resources comprises allocating the network resources in accordance with average usage history data for a network resource management entity managing the network resources for the network resource owning entity. 14. The computer-readable medium of claim 13, wherein the network resources comprise an internet protocol address, and wherein the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address for a predetermined amount of time. 15. The computer-readable medium of claim 13, wherein the network resources comprise an internet protocol address having a predetermined corresponding bandwidth. 16. A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for allocating internet protocol addresses from a network resource owning entity, the computer-executable instructions perform a method comprising: referencing usage history data on the network resource owning entity for a user requesting an internet protocol address; and allocating the internet protocol address to the user having a lease-time defined in accordance with the usage history data for the user, wherein if the usage history data includes less than a threshold amount of usage history data for the user, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with average usage history data for the network resource owning entity. 17. The computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the network resources include an internet protocol address having a predetermined corresponding bandwidth. 18. The computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource owning entity includes less than a threshold value, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with average usage history data for a network resource management entity managing the network resources for the network resource owning entity. 19. The computer-readable medium of claim 18, wherein if the average usage history data for the network resource management entity is less than a second threshold value, the allocating the internet protocol address comprises allocating the internet protocol address in accordance with a default allocation parameter. 20. The computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the threshold amount of usage history data for the user is dynamic.
