US 2018/0007436 A1 · Method and System for Dynamically Providing Personalized Channel Package for Multimedia Services to User

Abstract

Disclosed herein is method and system for dynamically providing personalized channel package for multimedia services to user. The method comprises retrieving a default channel map from a data source associated with service provider of the multimedia services. Then the method obtains a user viewing pattern and various channel recommendation factors related to user and the channels. Thereafter, a personalized context data of the user is generated by correlating the viewing pattern and the channel recommendation factors. Finally, the method generates and provides the personalized channel package to the user based on the personalized context data and the default channel map, thereby providing flexibility to the user for dynamically selecting, subscribing and managing the channels. Further, the method also determines an optimal cost for the personalized channel package and allows the user to perform real-time modifications to the channel package for further reducing the cost of the channel package.
