This document summarizes the key components of a digital media production infrastructure, including the network, hard disks, and file systems.
The network must support high throughput without packet loss or delays to support real-time media workflows. Point-to-point switched Ethernet and layer 3 routing address limitations of shared Ethernet.
Hard disks are most efficient with large sequential access rather than small random access. Disk striping and intelligent file systems can reduce random access.
File systems must support non-blocking access across many clients and disks without oversubscription to ensure resources are available for media production needs.

Cloud Based Video Production and EditingPaul Richards
As the, Chief Streaming Officer, here at PTZOptics I get to live stream and play with technology all the time and it has become a dream come true! The industry is chock-full of interesting people and the technology is moving so quickly there is always something new to work on. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is fielding questions from the comments on our YouTube videos.
I recently received a question about cloud based video production. It turns out we have three live interviews on the horizon dedicated to the topic:
-October 21st with NewTek (Hopefully CEO Andrew Cross but no promises :)
-October 28th with Jon Landman of Teradeck (Tentative)
-November 11th with Mark Gilbert CTO of Gallery SIENNA
-December 9th with Philippe Laurent CEO of GoEasyLive.
The Question from Donnie Campbell was: “I understand that there is device specific software to convert video to RTMP (i.e. VMIX, Wirecast, Wirecast go) but is there a cloud based option where I could stream regular video to a cloud based server to do this conversion?”
Traditionally, video production has always been handled on-site, compressed and then streamed. I would bet that 99% of all live video production is still done this way, primarily because of bandwidth restrictions and costs. The major breakthrough announced at NAB from NewTek this year, allows for ultra low latency IP video streaming over a LAN (Local Area Network). The technology NewTek has named “NDI” (Network Device Interface) was released in April of 2016, and is already in the hands of over 1 million video production users (source #1). Watch our live recording about “NewTek NDI Playbook” to learn more about how this technology is being integrated in almost every major market vertical!
While streaming video on the LAN is good, ideally we want to stream anywhere which is where Mark Gilbert from Gallery SIENNA says he can help us. Gilbert says “We are soon to launch our revolutionary NDI.Cloud global IP video service and I wondered if there was any common interest with PTZOptics.” Our team obviously responded saying that if NDI.Cloud allows NDI equipped facilities to seamless integrate with other NDI facilities over wide area networks and the public internet we would definitely be interested! Before you get to excited though Gilbert explained,”We are currently in a closed beta, and we would love to share more… Yesterday we demonstrated a low latency live NDI stream over NDI.Cloud from Mumbai to NewYork (12,500KM) (Source #2).
This got me thinking… If the entire video conferencing industry moved to the cloud why couldn’t video production? The cloud offers a lot of benefits to users, the biggest being low initial investment costs. The best cloud based services make life simpler for end users with a low monthly payment and a “wow this just works” style of delivery. In the video conferencing industry SaaS has been crushing the traditional pay-up-front hardware solutions year after year.
Roberto Saracco discusses technology evolution and its impact on telecommunications. Key trends include infrastructure becoming more user-driven rather than terminal-driven, and telecommunications becoming more creative and innovative. Storage capacity is projected to increase dramatically, reaching tens of terabytes by 2020. Processing power is also projected to greatly increase, reaching petaflop scales and 100 teraflops for $100 by 2020. Display resolution will reach 32 megapixels by 2020 with ultra-high definition becoming mainstream. Home internet bandwidth is projected to reach gigabit speeds by 2020 with very high-speed digital subscriber line technology. Wireless infrastructures will also continue to densify and new paradigms like load sharing, data sharing, broadcasting, peer
Tablets and Television - How tablet PC's will impact the Nature of Television...Maarten Verwaest
1. Tablets will impact television production by enabling a quality experience for competing with conventional TV using IP distribution instead of DVB, but new standards are needed for formatting, transport protocols, and production processes.
2. Current TV production is optimized for linear distribution and results in high costs, poor quality, and bad user experiences for non-linear distribution.
3. The next generation of content production systems needs to support automated, customizable content using model-driven development and integrated asset management for multi-platform distribution at low cost.

The computing continuum extends the high-performance cloud data centers with energy-efficient and low-latency devices close to the data sources located at the edge of the network. However, the heterogeneity of the computing continuum raises multiple challenges related to application and data management. These include (i) how to efficiently provision compute and storage resources across multiple control domains across the computing continuum, (ii) how to decompose and schedule an application, and (iii) where to store an application source and the related data. To support these decisions, we explore in this thesis, novel approaches for (i) resource characterization and provisioning with detailed performance, mobility, and carbon footprint analysis, (ii) application and data decomposition with increased reliability, and (iii) optimization of application storage repositories. We validate our approaches based on a selection of use case applications with complementary resource requirements across the computing continuum over a real-life evaluation testbed.

This session, presented at Streaming Media West 2018, will introduce a new real-time video encoding solution, combining the performance of System-on-Chip (SoC) encoding, with innovations from NVMe-based cloud infrastructure, which together provides an economical and high quality solution to deliver encoding at scale for live video streaming.
An Overview on Multimedia Transcoding Techniques on Streaming Digital Contentsidescitation
The current IT infrastructure as well as various
commercial applications are directly formulated based on
deployment in multimedia system e.g. education, marketing,
risk management, tele-medicines, military etc. One of the
challenges found in using such application is to deliver
uninterrupted stream of video between multiple terminals
e.g. smart-phone, PDAs, laptops, IPTV etc. The research shows
that there is a stipulated need of designing novel mechanism
of bit rate adjustment as well as format conversion policy so
that the source stream may stream well in diverse end devices
with multiple configuration of processor, memory, decoding
etc. This paper discusses various eminent points from
literature that will throw better highlights in understanding
a schema of direct digital-to-digital data conversion of one
encoding to another termed as transcoding. Although
multimedia transcoding has covered more than a decade in
the area of research, but unfortunately, there is a huge trade-
off between the application, service, resource constraint, and
hardware design that gives rise to QoS issues.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

By 2014,12 billionDVDs will cross the Internet each month.The average monthly trafficin 2014 will be equivalent to 32 million people streaming Avatar in 3D, continuously for the entire month.Single Layer / Dual Layer (smallest is 4.7GB and largest 60GB)12 cm, single sided 15 GB 30 GB12 cm, double sided 30 GB 60 GB 8 cm, single sided 4.7 GB 9.4 GB 8 cm, double sided 9.4 GB 18.8 GBOlder DVD-1 SS / SL 8cm was 1.46GBAnnual global IP traffic will exceed three-quarters of a zettabyte (767 exabytes) in four years. Global IP traffic grew 45 percent during 2009 to reach an annual run rate of 176 exabytes per year or 15 exabytes per month. In 2014, global IP traffic will reach 767 exabytes per year or 64 exabytes per month. The average monthly traffic in 2014 will be equivalent to 32 million people streaming Avatar in 3D, continuously for the entire month.Global IP traffic will quadruple from 2009 to 2014. Overall, IP traffic will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 34 percent.Hyperconnectivity has emerged as an important dynamic that has the potential to greatly increase traffic. In the past year, it has become clear that visual networking applications are often used concurrently with other applications and sometimes even other visual networking applications, as the visual network becomes a persistent backdrop that remains "on" while the user multitasks or is engaged elsewhere. This trend accompanies what is sometimes called the widgetization of Internet and TV, as network traffic expands beyond the borders of the browser window and the confines of the PC.There are four key enablers of hyperconnectivity, and all four are poised for strong growth. Multitasking and passive networking, the two key pillars of hyperconnectivity, are enabled by: (a) the growing penetration of high-speed broadband, (b) the expansion of digital screen surface area and resolution, (c) the proliferation of network-enabled devices, and (d) the increases in the power and speed of computing devices.Global Internet HighlightsIn 2014, the Internet will be four times larger than it was in 2009. By year-end 2014, the equivalent of 12 billion DVDs will cross the Internet each month.Peer-to-peer (P2P) is growing in volume, but declining as a percentage of overall IP traffic. P2P file-sharing networks are now carrying 3.5 exabytes per month and will continue to grow at a moderate pace with a CAGR of 16 percent from 2009 to 2014. Other means of file sharing, such as one-click file hosting, will grow rapidly at a CAGR of 47 percent and will reach 4 exabytes per month in 2014. Despite this growth, P2P as a percentage of consumer Internet traffic will drop to 17 percent of consumer Internet traffic by 2014, down from 39 percent at the end of 2009.Global Video HighlightsInternet video is now over one-third of all consumer Internet traffic, and will approach 40 percent of consumer Internet traffic by the end of 2010, not including the amount of video exchanged through P2P file sharing.The sum of all forms of video (TV, video on demand, Internet, and P2P) will continue to exceed 91 percent of global consumer traffic by 2014. Internet video alone will account for 57 percent of all consumer Internet traffic in 2014.Advanced Internet video (3D and HD) will increase 23-fold between 2009 and 2014. By 2014, 3D and HD Internet video will comprise 46 percent of consumer Internet video traffic.Video communications traffic growth is accelerating. Though still a small fraction of overall Internet traffic, video over instant messaging and video calling are experiencing high growth. Video communications traffic will increase sevenfold from 2009 to 2014.Real-time video is growing in importance. By 2014, Internet TV will be over eight percent of consumer Internet traffic, and ambient video will be an additional five percent of consumer Internet traffic. Live TV has gained substantial ground in the past few years: globally, P2P TV is now over 280 petabytes per month.Video-on-demand (VoD) traffic will double every two and a half years through 2014. Consumer IPTV and CATV traffic will grow at a 33 percent CAGR between 2009 and 2014.Global Mobile HighlightsGlobally, mobile data traffic will double every year through 2014, increasing 39 times between 2009 and 2014. Mobile data traffic will grow at a CAGR of 108 percent between 2009 and 2014, reaching 3.5 exabytes per month by 2014.Almost 66 percent of the world's mobile data traffic will be video by 2014. Mobile video will grow at a CAGR of 131 percent between 2009 and 2014. Mobile video has the highest growth rate of any application category measured within the mobile data portion of the Cisco VNI Forecast at this time.
Largely due to visual networking in all its various forms, Cisco expects global IP traffic to quadruple from 2009 to 2014. As Figure 1 shows, overall IP traffic is expected to grow to 64 exabytes per month by 2014, and 56 of those are due to consumer traffic. Consumer traffic, in turn, is driven by IP transport of VoD over the metro (11 exabytes per month in 2014), Internet video streams and downloads (almost 24 exabytes per month in 2014), and the exchange of video and other files through P2P and other file-sharing systems.
Of the 42 exabytes per month of consumer Internet traffic that will be generated every month in 2014, nearly 60 percent will be due to Internet video.
While the overall application mix is shifting toward video, video is undergoing internal shifts of its own. In particular, real-time video is growing in importance. Real-time video includes Internet TV, video communications, and ambient video.

The International Telecommunication Union (Union internationale des télécommunications, in French) is the specialized agency of the United Nations which is responsible for information and communication technologies. The Video Coding Experts Group or Visual Coding Experts Group (VCEG) is the informal name of Question 6 (Visual coding) of Working Party 3 (Media coding) of Study Group 16 (Multimedia coding, systems and applications) of the ITU-T. Its abbreviated title is ITU-T Q.6/SG 16. It is responsible for standardization of the "H.26x" line of video coding standards, the "T.8xx" line of image coding standards, and related technologies.DV is an intraframe compression scheme, which uses the discrete cosine transform (DCT) to compress video on a frame-by-frame basis. Audio is stored uncompressed.Closely following ITU-R Rec.601 standard, DV video employs interlaced scanning with the luminance sampling frequency of 13.5 MHz. Prior to the DCT compression stage, chromasubsampling is applied to the source video in order to reduce the amount of data to be compressed. HDV is a format for recording of high-definition video on DV cassette tape.[1] The format was originally developed by JVC and supported by Sony, Canon and Sharp.[2] The four companies formed the HDV consortium in September 2003.HDV video and audio are encoded in digital form, using lossy compression. Video is encoded with the MPEG-2 codec, using 8-bit chroma and luma samples with 4:2:0 chromasubsampling. Stereo audio is encoded with the MPEG-1 Layer 2 codec. The compressed audio and video are multiplexed into a MPEG transport stream, which is typically recorded onto magnetic tape, but can also be stored in a computer file.The data rate for both the audio and video is constant and is roughly the same as DV data rate. The relatively low data rate can cause bit rate starvation in scenes that have lots of fine detail, rapid movement or other complex activity like flashing lights, and may result in visible artifacts, such as blockiness and blurring. In contrast to the video, HDV audio bitrate is relatively generous. At the coded bitrate of 384kbit/s, MPEG-1 Layer 2 audio is regarded as perceptually lossless.MPEG transport stream (TS) is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio, video, and data,[7] and is used in broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC.Transport Stream is specified in MPEG-2 Part 1, Systems (formally known as ISO/IEC standard 13818-1 or ITU-T Rec. H.222.0).[3][4][5]Transport stream specifies a container format encapsulating packetized elementary streams, with error correction and stream synchronization features for maintaining transmission integrity when the signal is degraded.The container file is used to identify and interleave different data types. Simpler container formats can contain different types of audio formats, while more advanced container formats can support multiple audio and video streams, subtitles, chapter-information, and meta-data (tags) — along with the synchronization information needed to play back the various streams together. In most cases, the file header, most of the metadata and the synchro chunks are specified by the container format. For example, container formats exist for optimized, low-quality, internet video streaming which differs from high-quality DVD streaming requirements. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_container_formats
