发明名称 A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING SUBSCRIBER PROGRAMMING PREFERENCES
摘要 A method and system is provided for receiving sets of program requests from a plurality of subscriber locations and delivering programs that match or closely match the selected programming preferences or content requests. A processor at a cable headend registers the selected programming preferences for a given programming period and applies optimization techniques in an effort to have the communications equipment multicast each preference, rather than pointcast, in order to reduce the operating costs of the service provider.
