Abstract
A system and method to schedule data for transmission. The system comprises data generating means, developing means, and transmission scheduling means. The data generating means generates data comprising content data and metadata relating to the content data. The developing means develops a set of input data. The transmission scheduling means produces a continuously updating schedule for transmission of copies of the content data based on the metadata and the set of input data.
Claims24
A system, comprising:
- data generating means for generating data comprising content data and metadata relating to the content data;
- developing means for developing a set of input data;
- and
- transmission scheduling means for producing a continuously updating schedule for transmission of copies of the content data based on the metadata and the set of input data.
A method, comprising:
- providing a transmission scheduling means, a set of input data, and data, wherein the data comprises content data and metadata relating to the content data;
- producing by the transmission scheduling means, a continuously updating schedule for transmission of copies of the content data based on the metadata and the first set of input data.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a computer usable medium having a computer readable program code embodied therein for implementing a method, wherein the computer readable program code comprises a transmission scheduling means adapted to implement the method comprising:
- producing a continuously updating schedule for transmission of copies of content data based on metadata relating to the content data and a set of input data, wherein the metadata comprises priority level information for transmission of said copies, and wherein the set of input data comprises target data regarding a target receiving party for said copies.
A computer system comprising a processor and a computer readable memory unit coupled to the processor, said memory unit containing instructions that when executed by the processor implement a method for scheduling transmission of content data, said method comprising the computer implemented steps of:
- producing a continuously updating schedule for transmission of copies of the content data based on metadata relating to the content data and a set of input data, wherein the metadata comprises priority level information for transmission of said copies, and wherein the set of input data comprises target data regarding a target receiving party for said copies.
