Something feels wrong with regards to the existing specifications. • Feasibility has been proven with the help of different partners but now it’s time to look at the Cloud Browsers in a more mature manner: in W3C TELEKOM INNOVATION LABORATORIES 10/26/15 3 INTRODUCTION From virtual Set-Top Box to Cloud RTEs and APIs VIRTUAL SET-TOP BOX Multiple media data Home UI stream/H.264 Virtual Set-Top Box IP 01 RC Commands Cloud TELEKOM INNOVATION LABORATORIES – streng vertraulich, vertraulich, intern, öffentlich – 10/26/15 5 CLOUD BROWSER TO ENABLE CLOUD USER INTERFACE CLIENT data LOCAL UI BACK EXECUTION OFFICES MULTISCREE N API CLIENT data VIDEO Browser CLOUD-BASED EXECUTION Cloud-rendered ui implementations § Cloud-rendered UI is a concept that enables the shift of the browser from § Cloud UI: Cablevision Systems, the STB into the Cloud.

TELEKOM INNOVATION LABORATORIES 10/26/15 8 PROBLEM STATEMENT • In the last decade, after the Browser has Security become a runtime environment for STB TV-related Technologies Browser-related Technologies middleware, a lot of work has been done Cloud Browser RTE Core by standardization bodies on the definition Approach 1 Approach k of device APIs.

  • TV Everywhere &
    TV Everywhere & OTT Preserving the Pay TV Model March 2013 Executive Summary • Cable/pay TV remains one of the great cash cows of the modern media and communications industries, but in a maturing market that faces a growing threat of disruption, real service innovation is needed • Innovation is coming as content is being repurposed to support a growing array of digital services and parallel wireless and broadband networks are being synchronized to move content freely among all devices − Over-the-top (OTT) and TV Everywhere (TVE) services are now mainstream, and − The seamless movement of video between devices and turning the “second screen” into a useful adjunct of the television is becoming more real as consumers demand control of their media experiences • Software is fast becoming as important as content in determining the user experience, and there is no shortage of tech companies working to unbundle the content that sits at the core of the cable/pay TV business • While Cable/pay TV have ample time to work on these issues, as evidenced by early advances, it is apparent that real and meaningful innovation must take a higher priority than it has previously • For SPT, a clear case can be made to support investment in our ‘digital’ infrastructure to ensure that we remain competitive, can adapt multiscreen solutions and support pay TV operation initiatives, thereby sustaining subscriber fees, keeping our brands cutting edge and offering what consumers want 2 Pay TV still Strong • Pay TV satisfaction remains high among consumers − Reported
