The document discusses how semantic technologies can enable the transition from file-based media production to real-time co-production. It describes some of the issues with current non-integrated production processes and how semantic modeling, linked data, and system integration using semantic technologies can help solve problems around re-use, retrieval and scalability. Examples of applications for semantic technologies in media production workflows from pre-production to archiving are also provided.
An Architecture for Open Cross-Media Annotation ServicesBeat Signer
Presentation given at WISE 2009, Tenth International Conference on Web Information Systems Engineering, Poznan, Poland, October 2009
ABSTRACT: The emergence of new media technologies in combination with enhanced information sharing functionality oered by the Web provides new possibilities for cross-media annotations. This in turn raises new challenges in terms of how a true integration across dierent types of media can be achieved and how we can develop annotation services that are sufficiently flexible and extensible to cater for new document formats as they emerge. We present a general model for cross-media annotation services and describe how it was used to define an architecture that supports extensibility at the data level as well as within authoring and visualisation tools.
The HPC will support open source and open access infrastructures for a variety of sectors engaged with ‘hybrid publishing’ (combining web, print, multi-platform distribution and social media). Foremost among these are the worlds of academic and independent publishing and the HPC will develop technical, financial and workflow models for both, as well as work towards the launch of its own university press. The consortium has made a general commitment to open access publishing as a means to remove the artificial barriers that readers and authors encounter in their engagement with critical and scholarly work.
The lab’s dedication to ‘open source infrastructure’ groups together the many technical and social processes that can benefit academic/independent publishers, granting them the sustained attention and resourcing they demand. These include multi-platform delivery, collaborative writing, the ability to circumvent sales monopolies, open IPR and distribution into ‘open education’ environments.
The consortium will be a meeting point for the many stakeholders in open access academic and independent publishing – the authors, the readers, the publishers and the technologists. The HPC looks to be a connection point for these communities and will using rapid prototyping and agile development models to support, improve and network existing open source projects. The ultimate objective is to provide easy and inexpensive tool sets to allow publishers to make the switch to open IPR and multi-platform publishing.
Single source – this is a key architectural principle to digital multi-platform publishing, where a single master document exists separate from platform dependent design. With the master document being stored with universal metadata and a granular schema making it available on any new platform or distribution channel, in part or as a whole.
Partnerships – working with partners in the publishing and technology sectors HPC will support spin-offs and start-ups to service our user community. From development partners such as LShift, Pandora to publishing networks such as Mute and Eurozine.
Projects – the HPC has two initial projects as well as other ongoing strands of research.
Indy portal – a multi-platform system and open IPR business model for independent publishers aimed at bypassing online digital book distribution monopolies.
A multi-platform plugin for Open Journals System (OJS) – the project would be to add multi-platform publication conversion for the main workflow OA publishing tools OJS and its sister software package Open Monograph Systems (OMS).

SP1: Exploratory Network Analysis with GephiJohn Breslin
ICWSM 2011 Tutorial
Sebastien Heymann and Julian Bilcke
Gephi is an interactive visualization and exploration software for all kinds of networks and relational data: online social networks, emails, communication and financial networks, but also semantic networks, inter-organizational networks and more. Designed to make data navigation and manipulation easy, it aims to fulfill the complete chain from data importing to aesthetics refinements and interaction. Users interact with the visualization and manipulate structures, shapes and colors to reveal hidden properties. The goal is to help data analysts to make hypotheses, intuitively discover patterns or errors in large data collections.
In this tutorial we will provide a hands-on demonstration of the essential functionalities of Gephi, based on a real case scenario: the exploration of student networks from the "Facebook100" dataset (Social Structure of Facebook Networks, Amanda L. Traud et al, 2011). The participants will be guided step by step through the complete chain of representation, manipulation, layout, analysis and aesthetics refinements. Particular focus will be put on filters and metrics for the creation of their first visualizations. They will be incited to compare the hypotheses suggested by their own exploration to the results actually published in the academic paper afterwards. They finally will walk away with the practical knowledge enabling them to use Gephi for their own projects. The tutorial is intended for professionals, researchers and graduates who wish to learn how playing during a network exploration can speed up their studies.
Sébastien Heymann is a Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science at Université Pierre et Marie Curie, France. His research at the ComplexNetworks team focuses on the dynamics of realworld networks. He leads the Gephi project since 2008, and is the administrator of the Gephi Consortium.
Julian Bilcke is a Software Engineer at ISC-PIF (Complex Systems Institute of Paris, France). He is a founder and a developer for the Gephi project since 2008.
Thesis presentation: Middleware for Ubicomp - A Model Driven Development Appr...Till Riedel
With computers that will be interwoven into almost every industrial product like its nervous system (Steinbuch, 1966) we are already approaching what Weiser (1991) called Ubiquitous Computing, in terms of quantity, degree of embedding of computing systems in our life and work environment.
This thesis investigates model driven software development (MDSD) approach as a tool for contextual adaption of ubiquitous systems. Ubiquitous Systems (i.e. the embedded devices) are subject to changes that affect the execution of software. The systems are very heterogeneous and and the designer has to take a diverse set of plattforms and ressource constrained hardware into consideration.
By implementing a model driven development techniques for core problems of ubiquitous computing, namely distributed execution and heterogeneous communication in ubiquitous systems the work demonstrates that Model Driven Software Development of Ubiquitous Systems maybe used to solve the inherent contradiction between top-down and bottom-up development of networked embedded systems.

Whether you're a content creator, journalist, researcher, or business professional, the purpose of this tutorial is to familiarise you with Limecraft's AI transcription services, highlighting its capabilities, benefits, and practical applications.
Whether you're exploring AI transcription services for the first time or seeking to optimise your existing transcription processes, this tutorial will provide valuable insights and practical guidance. Our goal is to equip you with the tools and knowledge necessary to use AI transcription services effectively.
AI for Subtitling - Limecraft presentation the 2022 Open ForumMaarten Verwaest
In this presentation, Limecraft CEO Maarten Verwaest explains the state of the art of AI for subtitling.
He discusses the technologies for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) required to turn audio into well formed subtitles. Capitalising on the results of the Horizon2020 project Memad (memad.eu) and illustrated by a number of successful deployments, including The Associated Press and ITV, he discusses the key success factors and acceptance criteria to save 80% of the cost and time compared to conventional methods.
Practical Applications of AI in Media Production and BroadcastMaarten Verwaest
There's no doubt Artificial Intelligence can have a lot of business value for producers and distributors of Audiovisual Content. However, AI is an instrument and not a solution on its own. To cope with inaccuracies and inconsistencies, data has to be post-processed and presented in a proper user interface. In this presentation, we discuss how to apply AI solution in media production workflows. Presented at the ABU conference in Kuala Lumpur on March 5th, 2020.
Using Limecraft Flow for automatic Subtitling and Localisation of ContentMaarten Verwaest
Limecraft Flow is a workflow solution used by producers and post facilities of all sizes to automate production workflows. In this presentation, we explain how you can use machine transcription, automatic spotting and machine translation to automate the processes of same-language and language-to-language subtitling. By using Limecraft Flow, producers and distributors add different languages at marginal cost, thereby significantly increasing their potential audience while retaining all the rights over their content.
Presented at CineEurope in Barcelona on June, 18th 2019.
Cloud-based video Production of High-end ContentMaarten Verwaest
Modern media production requires shorter cycle times, and Artificial Intelligence to personalise content and to add interactive layers on top of the video. Producers worldwide use Limecraft Flow to streamline their production workflow and to automate clerical tasks like ingesting, transcription and logging, and subtitling.
Presented at MediaMatters 2018 (mediamatters.vc).
The Purpose of Cloud-technology for Video ProductionMaarten Verwaest
Using modern technology, producers of audio-visual content can significantly increase their productivity. In this presentation, you will learn how producers of factual content use Limecraft Flow to avoid excessive file transfers and to reduce clerical work.
Limecraft Flow is an online platform for collaborative video production. It is used by reporters, documentary makers, directors or editors to easily share material. Using Flow, they have their production in their hands.
Using modern technology, producers of audio-visual content increase their productivity and executive producers get more value for money. However, conventional technology is expensive and can be hard to get for independent producers. In this presentation you will learn how independent and institutional producers use cloud technology to optimise their workflow.
Future Media Production - on embedded metadata and semantic technologiesMaarten Verwaest
Maarten Verwaest speaks at IBC 2013 about the way Limecraft Flow uses semantic technology and embedded metadata to optimise collaboration and increase the level of interoperability in media production facilities.
Current media production best practices are based on craftsanship. A semantic technology enables a model-driven approach, which enables producers accessing new distribution channels, to offer personalised services and to explore new markets. Limecraft provides a media production platform based on a semantic integration platform that addresses these needs. This presentation discussed the value added of semantic technology throughout the media production process.
These illustrate why and how to use semantic technology, and how it can be combined with a low-level standard such as SMPTE MXF DMS-1.
These slides have been used at the EMWRT conference during IBC 2010.

Presentation of Mediamap @Ebu Production Technology SeminarMaarten Verwaest
Presentation of the intermediary results of the CELTIC project Mediamap on the EBU Production Technology Seminar by Maarten Verwaest.
(Geneva - 2010, February 3rd)
The solution space for professional media producers is fundamentally changing, as well as the requirements induced by the market.
Media have to be available on any device, by non-linear distribution and preferably in high-definition. These requirements translate to the back-office that has to become more agile and to scale out, while improving in terms of performance and stability.
Since it is not probable that conventional IT nor media technology suppliers will be able to take this hurdle - because they can't manage the complexity or because they are not allowed to do so by their shareholders, there is an opportunity for newcomers able to provide a solution.
The ultimate radio experience, apart from offering an excellent quality on any mobile and portable platform, gives the control back to the listener. By enabling pauze, back and forward buttons, the boundaries between live and on demand will disappear. Audio segmentation and indexing are the key to a radio search engine, personalisation, etc.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

31. Before passing over the record head, a tape in a recorder passes over the erase head which applies a high amplitude,
high frequency AC magnetic field to the tape to erase any previously recorded signal and to thoroughly randomize the
magnetization of the magnetic emulsion.
Typically, the tape passes over the erase head immediately before passing over the record head.
A magnetic "image" of a sound signal can be stored on tape in the form of magnetized iron oxide or chromium dioxide
granules in a magnetic emulsion. The tiny granules are fixed on a polyester film base, but the direction and extent of their
magnetization can be changed to record an input signal from a tape head.
When a magnetized tape passes under the playback head of a tape recorder, the ferromagnetic material in the tape
head is magnetized and that magnetic field penetrates a coil of wire which is wrapped around it. Any change in magnetic
field induces a voltage in the coil according to Faraday's law. This induced voltage forms an electrical image of the signal
which is recorded on the tape.
