Problems solved by technology

A key issue in this approach is that locality of access, especially for rich multimedia content (e.g., movies), is not particularly strong given cache utilization—rich content such as video takes Lots of cache space, but not necessarily a high hit rate

Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for creating a customized message in a video-on-demand service, in which a user accesses the service using a communications device. In an embodiment, the method comprises using a video-on-demand server to intercept the access by the user of the video-on-demand service, obtain information about video content of a local cache of the video-on-demand service, obtain a profile of the user, and identify a context of the user. A customized message is constructed for the communications device based on the information about the local cache, the profile of the user, and the context of the user. The video-on-demand server sends the customized message to the communications device. In one embodiment, the user accesses the video-on-demand service through an edge base station of a core network, and the video-on-demand server is in this base station of the core network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to video-on-demand services. More specifically, the present invention relates to constructing custom messages that suggest or recommend video content to users. Background technique [0002] Mobile communication has become very pervasive and its applications are expected to grow enormously in just a few years. Various devices such as cellular phones, smart phones, and personal digital assistants are used to receive many types of data and information, such as phone calls, and music and video including television shows and movies. [0003] Broadband wireless technologies are widely deployed in mobile communication networks because they allow transmission of high-bandwidth applications such as video-on-demand, video conferencing, and other streaming applications over wireless links with guaranteed quality of service and compliance with security regulations. The adoption of 4G networks has also inspired many partici...
