Our workshop is called IPTV - The Next Generation TV and here is a summary of it, small clarification for the topic that we chose for our event and for you, our dearest participants. We hope you will find it interesting and that you' ll apply. We all watch TV, right? Have you ever asked yourself how, everything you see, actually comes to your TV screens? In how many ways it can be done and etc.? Well, if you have, here is a great opportunity for you to get those answers . IPTV is defined as the secure and reliable delivery to subscribers of entertainment video and related services. These services may include, for example, Live TV, Video On Demand (VOD) and Interactive TV (iTV). These services are delivered across an acces agnostic, packet switched network that employs the IP protocol to transport the audio, video and control signals. In contrast to video over the public Internet, with IPTV deployments, network security and performance are tightly managed to ensure a superior entertainment experience, resulting in a compelling business environment for content providers, advertisers and customers alike. Waaaaaaaaaiitttttt, waaiiittt ............. don't click on the cLoSe button so soon =) We also have even more interesting things to tell you about our workshop. First, you will have the chance to see Europe's only salt lake as part of Tuzlas central park which has around 100,000 people visiting its shores every year.
