Abstract
Systems and methods are described for predictive delaycast feedback in relation to content object queuing and offer and request handling via communications systems. When a subscriber of communications and/or media services requests access to a content object, embodiments can determine where the content object can and/or should be placed in a delaycast queue. The queue can include multiple regions associated with different estimated delivery timeframes. The placement determination can involve determining an appropriate queue location for the requested content object (e.g., an appropriate queue region), and determining an associated promise time for the requested object.
