CONSTRUCTING A CUSTOMIZED MESSAGE IN A VIDEO-ON-DEMAND SERVICE
First Claim
1. A method of creating a customized message in a video-on-demand service to increase use of local caches, wherein a user accesses a site of the video-on-demand service using a communications device, the method comprising:
- using a video-on-demand server to intercept the access by the user of the site of the video-on-demand service, to obtain information about video content of a local cache of the video-on-demand server, to obtain a profile of the user, and to identify a context of the user;
constructing a customized message for the user based on the information about the video contents of the local cache, the profile of the user, and the context of the user; and
the video-on-demand server sending the customized message to the user; and
wherein;
the video-on-demand service is provided by a core telecommunications network having a base station;
the user accesses the site of the video-on-demand service by accessing the base station;
of the core telecommunications network;
the local cache is in the base station; and
the customized message includes information about the video content of the local cache to increase use of the video content of the local cache by the user.

Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for creating a customized message in a video-on-demand service, in which a user accesses the service using a communications device. In an embodiment, the method comprises using a video-on-demand server to intercept the access by the user of the video-on-demand service, obtain information about video content of a local cache of the video-on-demand service, obtain a profile of the user, and identify a context of the user. A customized message is constructed for the communications device based on the information about the local cache, the profile of the user, and the context of the user. The video-on-demand server sends the customized message to the communications device. In one embodiment, the user accesses the video-on-demand service through an edge base station of a core network, and the video-on-demand server is in this base station of the core network.
