Content Everywhere: The Challenges of a Mobile, Wireless and Social Viewership
Content consumption is moving to the multi-screen and to the device ecosystem of the new wireless landscape. Deploying any content-centric solutions now requires multidisciplinary approaches for designing the networks that will support the services as well as of the capabilities of the different devices that will render the experience. In particular, as video has moved onto the Internet and to wireless networks, the traditional delivery value chain is becoming obsolete: video and TV content is nowadays available from a variety of networks and operators and rendered on a large variety of devices. With the convergence of voice, text, video and gaming, ancillary content and extra features are combined to the main streams and can be inserted anywhere in the delivery chain. This increase of the demand for new services and applications is combined with the scarcity of wireless resources and the growing energy use of networks in storing and conveying media. This presentation intends to present both novel system architectures as well as analysis results that redefine strategies to better deliver and consume content on the inter-net and inter-cloud of the near future and concentrate on delivery and social viewing. The presented work will build on recent research on network coding, Social TV and social viewing on wireless networks and include peer to peer and distributed storage, quality of experience (QoE) in multiscreen ecosystems and new approaches to content protection.
Speaker Details
Dr. Marie-José Montpetit is a lecturer at the MIT Media Lab and an advisor to Boston area startups in video and social networking. Until October 2012 she was a researcher at the MIT Research Laboratory of Electronics. Her pioneering work on Social, Wireless and Multi-screen television is recognized worldwide and has been rewarded by a Motorola Technology Prize in 2007 and a MIT Technology Review TR10 in 2010 as well as a Montreal-Video award and a TEDx presentation in 2012. Her main research is on the convergence of networking and video for seamless mobility and social viewing using network coding and novel architectures. Dr Montpetit is a technology reviewer at the European Union, a participant to many standardization bodies and a keynote speaker in many international conferences. She holds a Ph.D in EECS from the Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal.
