Abstract:
Media content coded using scalable coding techniques may be cached among a group of cache devices. Layered segments of the media content may be pre-loaded onto the cache devices, which may be located throughout a content distribution network, including a home network. The caching location of the media content may be determined based on multiple factors including a content preference associated with the group of cache devices and device capabilities. A cache controller may manage the caching of the media content.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for distributing media content among a group of cache devices, the method comprising:\n monitoring content availability associated with a content source; receiving content preference information and device property information associated with the group of cache devices; determining, based on the content preference information associated with the group of cache devices, that a content object available at the content source is relevant to at least one cache device of the group of cache devices; determining, based on scalability information associated with the content object, that the content object comprises a base layer and an enhancement layer that depends on the base layer for decoding; selecting, based at least on the scalability information associated with the content object and the device property information associated with the group of cache devices, a first cache device from the group of cache devices for caching the base layer of the content object and a second cache device from the group of cache devices for caching the enhancement layer of the content object; and transmitting instructions to the first cache device to cache the base layer of the content object and to the second cache device to cache the enhancement layer of the content object.
