Systems and methods presented herein provide for Content On Demand (COD) asset insertion. A COD asset insertion decision system (CODAID) is communicatively coupled to a content distributer to process information about COD content selections by Customer Premises Equipment (CPEs). An auction system is communicatively coupled to the CODAID and to a plurality of asset providers to process information about assets of the providers, to provide an auction for asset opportunities in the COD content selections, to receive bids for the asset opportunities, and to rank the auctioned assets according to bid. The CODAID further ranks the auctioned assets based in part on the COD content selection information and the asset information, identifies one or more of the further ranked assets for insertion into the COD content selection, and directs the content distributer to insert the identified one or more further ranked assets into the COD content selection.

Auctioning for content on demand asset insertion

Systems and methods presented herein provide for the insertion of assets into COD content. In one embodiment, a COD asset decision system (ADS) identifies asset insertion opportunities within COD contents selected by a plurality user equipment (UEs) over a network, identifies assets for insertion into the asset insertion opportunities, ranks the assets, selects portions of the ranked assets for insertion to generate asset maps, and directs the insertion of the selected assets into the asset insertion opportunities based on the asset maps. The COD ADS is further operable to generate viewing statistics of the UEs, and to change the asset maps based on the viewing statistics.

Dynamic asset loading based on viewer behavior and preferences

One embodiment herein includes a Content On Demand (COD) asset insertion system that is operable to process a plurality of asset campaigns from a plurality of asset managers, to process information from a remote COD content distributor about COD content selections by a plurality of Customer Premises Equipment (CPEs), to identify and qualify assets of the asset campaigns for insertion in the COD content selections, and to direct the remote COD content distributor to insert the qualified assets into the COD content selections. The embodiment also includes an analytics processor that is operable to collect information about the assets inserted in the COD content selections, to modify the asset campaigns based on the collected information, and to present the modified asset campaigns to the COD asset insertion decision system. The COD asset insertion decision system is further operable to re-qualify the assets based on the modified asset campaigns.

Campaign modification for content on demand asset insertion

Systems and methods presented herein provide for Content On Demand (COD) asset insertion. A COD asset insertion decision system (CODAID) is communicatively coupled to a content distributor to process information about a COD content selection by a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). The CODAID also processes information about assets from asset providers. The CODAID ranks the assets based in part on the COD content selection information and the asset information, identifies one or more of the ranked assets for insertion into the COD content selection, and directs the content distributor to insert the identified one or more ranked assets into the COD content selection. The system also includes an auction system which identifies asset placement opportunities remaining in the COD content selection after the CODAID identifies the one or more ranked assets for insertion so as to provide an auction for the asset placement opportunities.
