Methods and systems for use in network management of content
First Claim
1. A method for use in managing content over a local network, comprising:
- detecting there is a change to content on a local network;
determining whether the change is additional content on a first client device;
determining whether the additional content can be identified;
determining whether there is a predictive distribution scheme when the additional content is identified;
distributing the additional content over the local network according the predictive distribution scheme when a predictive distribution scheme applies to the additional content;
determining whether a new predictive distribution scheme can be defined when a predictive distribution scheme does not apply to the additional content; and
saving the new predictive distribution scheme when a new predictive scheme can be defined.

Abstract
The present embodiments provide methods, systems and apparatuses for use in managing content on at least a local network. Some embodiments provide a method for use in managing content that detects there is a change to content on a local network, determines whether the change is additional content on a first client device, determines whether the additional content can be identified, determines whether there is a predictive distribution scheme when the additional content is identified, distributes the additional content over the local network according the predictive distribution scheme when a predictive distribution scheme applies to the additional content, determines whether a new predictive distribution scheme can be defined when a predictive distribution scheme does not apply to the additional content, and saving the new predictive distribution scheme when a new predictive scheme can be defined.

16. A method of distributing content over a network, comprising:
-
detecting new content on a first client device of a network;
identifying the new content;
determining whether related content has been received on the network;
determining a usage of the related content relative to being added to the network; and
scheduling a distribution of the new content over the network based on the determined usage of the related content. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
