In the past several decades, changes in video technology have frequently occurred through seismic shifts in ecosystem support. The triumph of VHS over Betamax, the subsequent shift from VHS to DVD, and the rise of H.264 have all followed a pattern in which the industry rallies around a technology and solidifies its position in the market.
In 2015, the next sea change is underway. Legacy video streaming protocols built on overlay networks, custom protocols, and specialized servers are giving way to chunked, connectionless, HTTP-based “Modern Streaming.”
Organizations that implement their live and on-demand video infrastructure using Modern Streaming stand to benefit from reductions in cost and network management complexity, and from improvements in scalability and the viewing experience. Because modern video protocols have been built to leverage the architecture of the internet and corporate WANs, they work in concert with organizations’ existing web caching infrastructure and WAN optimization technologies.
For organizations with video infrastructure built on legacy streaming protocols like RTMP, MMS, and RTSP, and organizations that have invested in multicast video communication, Modern Streaming represents an inflection point. Although continued investment in legacy video technology limits near-term disruption, it prolongs an inevitable technology transition, increases the eventual cost of switching, and limits the choice of technology providers who are actively divesting from the technologies.
Learn more! In our latest white paper, Modern Video Streaming in the Enterprise: Protocols, Caching, and WAN Optimization, we’ll take a deeper look into the technical shifts driving the move toward Modern Streaming, including the seven characteristics that make a video streaming protocol modern.
We’ll also look that the new opportunities Modern Streaming presents for organizations to use existing network infrastructure for more scalable, cost-effective video delivery.
A Business Guide to MPLS IP VPN Migration: Five Critical FactorsXO Communications
Multi-Protocol Label Switching Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network, or MPLS IP VPN, refers to a VPN service enabled over a trusted provider’s private MPLS core backbone. It delivers the flexibility of an IP service with the essential service quality, performance, and security previously available only with legacy technologies. Other benefits include cost-effective security, any-to-any connectivity, Quality of Service, scalable bandwidth, and a platform for convergence.
Building Cloud-ready Video Transcoding System for Content Delivery Networks (...Zhenyun Zhuang
GLOBECOM 2012
Video streaming traffic of both VoD (Video on
Demand) and Live is exploding. Various types of businesses
and many people are relying on video streaming to attract
customers/users and for other purposes. Given the vast number
of video stream formats (e.g., MP4, FLV) and transmission
protocols (e.g., HTTP, RTMP, RTSP) for supporting varying
types of playback terminals (particularly mobile devices such as
iphone/ipad and Android phones), video content providers often
need to transcode videos to multiple formats in order to stream
to different types of users.
Being time-sensitive and requiring high bandwidth, video
streaming exerts high pressure on underlying delivery networks.
Content Delivery Network (CDN) providers can help their
customers quickly and reliably distribute stream contents to end
users. In addition to distributing video streams, CDN providers
typically allow their customers to perform video transcoding on
CDN platforms. With the high volume of video streams and the
bursty transcoding workload, CDN providers are eager to deploy
elastic and optimized cloud-based transcoding platforms.
As consumers demand ever-greater amounts of high-quality content over the Internet,
service providers (SPs) are finding it difficult to increase revenues while containing costs.
This is due mainly to two trends: (1) over-the-top (OTT) content providers have outsourced
the delivery of content to pure-play content delivery network (CDN) companies, and (2) traffic
growth (with no resulting revenue benefit) is increasing network build-out and maintenance
costs for SPs.

A FRAMEWORK FOR MOBILE VIDEO STREAMING AND VIDEO SHARING IN CLOUDJournal For Research
The transmission of data has grown over years in all the streams of technology. Video and image data plays a very important position in communication around the globe. The usage of Medias over mobile devices had exploded years ago in technology. However, the usage of traditional network connecting protocols and the service providers are providing lack of quality in services. As the number of users who uses mobile phones is increasing day by day the video traffic over network is also increasing thereby causes disruption in the service which is caused by low bandwidth. Due to this disruption the wireless cannot able to satisfy the users demand for video streaming which eventually causes long buffering time. Influencing cloud computing knowledge to gain advantage over this issue we suggest two solutions. i) Mobile Video Streaming (MoV) and Social Video Sharing (SoV). MoV will create a private cloud for each mobile user which adjusts the bit rate based on return value using scalable video coding technique to improve the scalability and efficient utilization of bandwidth. SoV uses the agent to pre fetch the video data for effective sharing and to reduce the buffering time.
Edge device multi-unicasting for video streamingTal Lavian Ph.D.
After a decade of research and development, IP multicast has still not been deployed widely in the global Internet due to many open technical issues: lack of admission control, poorly scaled with large number of groups, and requiring substantial infrastructure modifications. To provide the benefits of IP multicast without requiring direct router support or the presence of a physical broadcast medium, various Application Level Multicast (ALM) models have been attempted. However, there are still several problems with ALM: unnecessary coupling between an application and its multicasting supports, bottleneck problem at network access links and considerable processing power required at the end nodes to support ALM mechanisms. This paper proposes an architecture to address these problems by delegating application-multicasting support mechanisms to smart edge devices associated with the application end nodes. The architecture gives rise to an interesting Edge Device Any-casting technology that lies between the IP-multicasting and the Application Layer Multicasting and enjoys the benefits of both. Furthermore, the architecture may provide sufficient cost-benefit for adoption by service providers. The paper presents initial results obtained from the implementation of a video streaming application over the testbed that implements the proposed architecture.

The Practical Guide to Flipping Your Classroom - An eBook by the Panopto Vide...Panopto
In the last decade, academic institutions at all levels have begun introducing non-traditional pedagogies that combine traditional brick-and-mortar teaching with online, on-demand learning.
Among all of the approaches to this “blended learning,” one has garnered more media attention, reported more tangible results, and gained the support of more educators than any other — the flipped classroom.
In just the last four years, flipping the classroom has evolved from an obscure experiment to a mainstream model for improving the student learning experience in universities and school districts around the world.
But just what is a flipped classroom?
How do teachers prepare to flip a class?
How do they create flipped lecture materials and structure in-class time?
And how do they know if all their efforts were worth it?
Just in time for the new school year, we’ve developed the definitive guidebook for any teacher, professor, or administrator interested in flipping their classrooms.
The Practical Guide to Flipping Your Classroom covers everything from what questions educators can expect when flipping a class, to how to plan for interactive learning sessions and even what to look for in video equipment.
Case Study: Qualcomm Amplifies Global Employee and Partner Training with the ...Panopto
At Qualcomm, invention is at the heart of corporate culture — a value the company relies on in order to maintain its place atop the mobile technology industry.
Facilitating that culture is another closely-held principle: strong support for employee learning and development.
For Qualcomm employees, partners, and contractors, the company’s commitment to continuous learning is readily apparent in the volume of training options the company offers. Qualcomm’s learning and development teams facilitate more than 600 instructor-led training events annually, as well as a nearly endless stream of informal knowledge sharing sessions, guru talks, and brown bag discussions
Searching for Lower-Cost, More Scalable Training
Supporting its litany of live in-classroom sessions, Qualcomm uses video to expand the availability of many of its training courses, making most courses viewable on-demand for engineers, analysts, executives, and other members of the organization.
At first, Qualcomm relied on a vendor to produce its training videos, but it quickly became apparent that model wasn’t scalable. Recordings took weeks to produce, and each new session added yet another invoice against the budget. In addition, Qualcomm couldn’t offer technical enhancements to the videos like more reliable streaming, peer-to-peer sharing, or inside-video search to make the final products more user-friendly.
Collectively, Qualcomm’s learning and development teams went looking for a more efficient tool to deliver video for eLearning. That’s when they discovered Panopto.
“When I first found Panopto, I thought ‘Wow, we could create all this video ourselves, and it would be easy,” said Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management at Qualcomm. “This could open up our world.’”

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
