Abstract: A method of scheduling messages based upon whether there are any changes in the content of each message to be scheduled, and also considering certain information that may be needed by the terminal. Messages are scheduled such that the terminal (UE) would only need to perform minimal reading operations, thus resulting in more efficient reception of services by the terminal based upon improved scheduling performed by the network.
