Abstract

The subject disclosure is directed towards a technology that timely pre-fetches content to a computing device based upon a prediction that a user will be requesting access to the content. Features comprising temporal features, spatial features, spatiotemporal features and/or other features associated with content are provided to a model trained at least in part with historical access data. The model returns information from which a determination of whether to pre-fetch the content is made.
