Abstract
Techniques associated with data management and distribution are described, including receiving at a content distribution and management system activity data associated with a user from a client, the client having an interface configured to display commercial content and a player configured to access the content distribution and management system, storing the activity data in a database, displaying the commercial content using the interface, receiving other activity data associated with the user from the client, storing the other activity data in the database, determining other commercial content to display using the activity data and the other activity data, and displaying the other commercial content.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving at a content distribution and management system a request from a client;
- parsing the request to identify a plurality of files including a heterogeneous mix of one or more content files, the adaptive intelligence being configured to send the one or more content files from a wireless media player device associated with the user profile to another wireless media player device associated with at least one of the one or more user profiles;
- generating a determination based on evaluating user activity data to algorithmically identify, without user input, which of the one or more content files to send to the other wireless media player devices;
- modifying the plurality of files in response to the request;
- invoking the adaptive intelligence to evaluate a user profile associated with the client, user activity, a control parameter, and one or more user profiles associated with the request to identify, using an application configured to execute one or more algorithms to identify commercial content configured to be inserted with the plurality of files, at least one of the one or more content files;
- using a distribution scheme associated with the plurality of files and the control parameter to determine whether the at least one of the one or more content files is configured to be distributed to the client with the commercial content, and the distribution scheme being further configured to be used to retrieve the plurality of files in one or more boxcars by minimizing duplication of one of the one or more content files in one of the one or more boxcars:
- and
- using one or more codecs to implement a media codec configured to playback in one or more formats the one or more content files on the wireless media player device or the other wireless media player devices.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having one or more computer program instructions configured to perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving at a content distribution and management system a request from a client;
- parsing the request to identify a plurality of files including a heterogeneous mix of one or more content files, the adaptive intelligence being configured to send the one or more content files from a wireless media player device associated with the user profile to another wireless media player device associated with at least one of the one or more user profiles;
- generating a determination based on evaluating user activity data to algorithmically identify, without user input, which of the one or more content files to send to the other wireless media player devices;
- modifying the plurality of files in response to the request;
- invoking the adaptive intelligence to evaluate a user profile associated with the client, user activity, a control parameter, and one or more user profiles associated with the request to identify, using an application configured to execute one or more algorithms to identify commercial content configured to be inserted with the plurality of files, at least one of the one or more content files;
- using a distribution scheme associated with the plurality of files and the control parameter to determine whether the at least one of the one or more content files is configured to be distributed to the client with the commercial content, and the distribution scheme being further configured to be used to retrieve the plurality of files in one or more boxcars by minimizing duplication of one of the one or more content files in one of the one or more boxcars;
- and
- using one or more codecs to implement a media codec configured to playback in one or more formats the one or more content files on the wireless media player device or the other wireless media player devices.
