The different technological affordances and revenue models of subscriber-funded, internet-distributed video streaming services have altered the competitive environments of audiovisual services. One category of these services, multinational SVODs (subscription video on demand), are changing the dynamics of transnational video distribution. Although having subscribers and offices, and commissioning content from many countries, are obvious measures of these services’ multinational status, the extent to which the distinct affordances of these services diminish the national lens through which all other international television trade occurs may be the most profound measure. The article explores how this too becomes a distinguishing competitive tool for Netflix that enables uncommon content strategies, such as the ability to program for tastes and sensibilities too small to effectively form a viable market for services limited by national reach.

ZusammenfassungÜberall auf der Welt feiern Video-on-Demand-Dienste ihren Siegeszug. Angesichts des boomenden Streaming-Marktes sowie des Rückgangs auf dem Kaufmarkt von Trägermedien wie DVDs und den dafür erforderlichen Abspielgeräten im privaten Gebrauch, stehen Bibliotheken und Video-Streaming-Anbieter vor der Herausforderung, eine Alternative zu schaffen, die den veränderten Bedürfnissen der Nutzer Rechnung trägt und gleichzeitig den weitestgehend unveränderten Erwerbungsbudgets der Bibliotheken gerecht wird.

Asistimos a un despliegue heterogéneo y a menudo contradictorio de valoraciones sobre el papel del usuario en el contexto del periodismo digital interactivo: desde la noción de que estos son el “motor principal” de la labor de un medio y por tanto están en el centro de su proyecto periodístico, hasta la idea de que simplemente se incorporan como una fuente adicional a las que por tradición se venían cotejando, pasando por el criterio de que los contenidos autogenerados por los usuarios serían un mero indicador de temáticas de interés para los lectores, que luego pueden ser apropiadas por periodistas para darles un cabal desarrollo. En el artículo se plantea el concepto de interactividad desde varios autores. Se describen las interacciones de los lectores / usuarios con los contenidos de los medios digitales estudiados y las que suceden entre estos y otros sujetos (los periodistas, los directivos del medio, los personajes o fuentes de la información, otros lectores, etc.). Se indica que para habilitar esta interacción se utilizan especialmente los foros de los lectores, de video streaming, “videocomentario” y video on demand. Finalmente, se proponen una serie de preguntas de las cuales podrían partir otros análisis de este tipo: ¿Qué lugar debe tener el lector/usuario en el proyecto periodístico de los medios digitales? ¿Si se le otorga un lugar central al usuario en dicho proyecto, qué implicaciones tiene esto para las prácticas periodísticas y la identidad profesional? ¿Es posible conservar intacta en los medios online la concepción de los medios y los periodistas como filtros inapelables de la información (gatekeeping)?

The advent of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) has brought a revolutionary change coined as a mixture of information, communication, computation, and control. With applications in smart grid, health monitoring, automatic avionics, distributed robotics, etc., CPS is currently an area of attention among the academia and industry. The advancement of mobile communications and embedded technology has made it possible to build large scale CPS consisting of the interconnection of mobile phones. These devices collect information about the surrounding environment at any time anywhere basis through real-time video capture. Video streaming has proven to be a massive industry that is growing rapidly playing an important role in everyday life. Customer-driven approach wanting best experience with quality has to be the core offering of contemporary scenario. Video streaming is categorized into Video-On-Demand Streaming (VoDS) and Live Video Streaming (LVS) showing the current state-of-art opportunities. Many diverse applications of video streaming are military video surveillance using drones, live sports match player face recognition, on-demand video characters recognition, movie summarization like identifying parts of the movie which are viewed many times by different users, movie and series recognition, motion detection, gesture recognition, image segmentation, etc. This paper introduces an approach to develop video analysis on VoD and LVS using cloud-based services and analyzes the impact of Quality of Experience (QoE), cost, and bandwidth on the cloud. To achieve the best user experience for video streaming and video analysis, Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers the best QoE at various analyzed locations using various cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) CloudFront, Google Cloud CDN, Azure CDN, Akamai CDN, etc.

Recently, many video applications like video telephony, video conferencing, Video-on-Demand (VoD), and so forth have produced heterogeneous consumers in the Internet. In such a scenario, media servers play vital role when a large number of concurrent requests are sent by heterogeneous users. Moreover, the server and distributed client systems participating in the Internet communication have to provide suitable resources to heterogeneous users to meet their requirements satisfactorily. The challenges in providing suitable resources are to analyze the user service pattern, bandwidth and buffer availability, nature of applications used, and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for the heterogeneous users. Therefore, it is necessary to provide suitable techniques to handle these challenges. In this paper, we propose a framework for peer-to-peer- (P2P-) based VoD service in order to provide effective video streaming. It consists of four functional modules, namely, Quality Preserving Multivariate Video Model (QPMVM) for efficient server management, tracker for efficient peer management, heuristic-based content distribution, and light weight incentivized sharing mechanism. The first two of these modules are confined to a single entity of the framework while the other two are distributed across entities. Experimental results show that the proposed framework avoids overloading the server, increases the number of clients served, and does not compromise on QoS, irrespective of the fact that the expected framework is slightly reduced.
