• Quality of Experience Analytics and Insights – Two new products to help media organizations understand the streaming quality of the delivery of their content and measure its impact on the viewer experience by transforming raw data into actionable insights.

Those interested in attending sessions with Brightcove experts can sign up for the following events:

• Panel Discussion: On the money: How to choose a monetisation model

• • Date: Friday, September 15 at 1:30 p.m.
  • Location: Hall 5 | Content Everywhere Stage 2
  • Brightcove Expert: Roberta Cambio, Senior Product Marketing Manager
  • About: Most media companies use monetization models based on their audience or content. The more narrowly defined a monetisation model is, the more revenue opportunities can be missed. A multi-pronged monetization approach can attract more viewers. This panel will discuss how a new service determines the available monetisation options and the key metrics that need to be monitored. Speakers will also look at monetisation models beyond traditional advertising.

• Streaming – Improving Delivery Efficiency

• • Date: Saturday, September 16 at 10:30 a.m.
  • Location: IBC Technical Papers | Hall E102
  • Brightcove Expert: Yuriy Reznik, VP of Research and Technology Fellow
  • About: Multicast has promised to solve the scale issue of delivering very popular television over the Internet for a long time. Our first paper from BT Research presents a proof-of-concept architecture and field trial results to assist unicast delivery using multicast. The paper addresses the challenges and needs arising from the requirement to support multiple content service providers and their end client devices. Our second paper from Brightcove builds on the recent addition of content steering into HLS and MPEG DASH (which enables dynamic routing of streaming content between different CDNs). This requires content steering servers; the challenge is implementing them robustly and at scale. This paper discusses those challenges and presents a solution and an open-source validation and trial implementation project. This session also has two supporting papers; the University of Surrey has used machine learning to expedite “elephant flow” detection within the network, enabling re-routing of this traffic to minimise latency-induced congestion. The other is an investigation by Comcast into an emerging transport protocol, Media over QUIC, offering traffic prioritization and low latencies without the typical shortcomings of TCP-IP. Interesting experimental results are provided.
