Patent attributes
A method and system for improving access to network content are described. Aspects of the disclosure minimize the delay between a navigation event and a network response by prerendering the next navigation event. For example, the method and system may predict a likely next uniform resource locator during web browsing to preemptively request content from the network before the user selects the corresponding link on a web page. The prediction operation may use a current location of a computing device to identify a set of browsing habits associated with that location. The browsing habits may be used to identify a most likely navigation event for prerendering. The methods and systems describe a variety of manners for prerendering content and managing and configuring prerendering operations.
