Recently I meet an interesting question is what data should belong to internal and what data should be external?

A simple case is the ML algorithm, such as reinforcement learning, needs "rewards" to  correct the error and improve its model during iterations. Some reward parameters may be from subscribers. For example, when we use the QoE value to present the reward in each period. These feedback QoE values should be internal or external? 

BTW, I think there should be some methods to support the "reward" feedback. For instance, there is some proposal to use RSVP protocol's option to transmit the QoS value. And in the scenarios of video transmission, some proposal uses TCP option to feedback the QoS of current flow. 

Maybe there is room for the future.

Thanks for your reply and suggestions.
