Using a data-driven approach, a new trend is
to exploit machine-learning techniques to
learn user and content intelligence37—for example,
in the form of mining the user’s quality
of experience, which in turn can make multimedia
distributionmore efficient
The possibility of inferring social propagation
according to users’ social profiles and behaviors
has also been investigated, allocating network
resources at edge-cloud servers based on propagation
predictions (see Figure 6).
