  • A Short(Ish) Note About Music and Copyright
    NorthLight Media Limited 94 Thorpe Park Road Peterborough PE3 6LJ 07768 261276 www.northlightmedia.co.uk A short(ish) note about music and copyright NorthLight Media does not normally use copyright-protected music in videos. Most music is protected by copyright, whether it’s U2’s Beautiful Day or Air on a G String by Bach. Bach won’t be too bothered by infringements of his copyright but the owners of the recording probably are. Bono takes a dim view of his songs being used without permission. Films shown at events Occasionally, we have produced a film that is to be shown to an audience at a one-off event, such as a school open evening. The showing of the film to an audience in the school hall is covered by the school’s performance licence – the one that permits the school to hold a disco on its premises. But including a copyrighted song in the film is still an infringement of copyright because the song has been copied without permission. Using a song that the school has bought, say on CD, might be a defence, but ultimately, other copies of the song now exist so copyright has been infringed by the film producer. The school playing the film that includes music it has paid for is unlikely to be prosecuted over the event. Videos used online (YouTube, Vimeo and other websites) When a video containing copyrighted music is posted on YouTube, the YouTube system usually picks it up straight away. The person or company uploading the video will be told that copyrighted content has been detected and that the video will either be blocked, restricted or have advertisements placed on it.

  • Extending the Enterprise to the Edge Your Guide to Converging Operational and Information Technology
    Extending the Enterprise to the Edge Your Guide to Converging Operational and Information Technology Traditionally, agencies have approached information technology as a separate discipline from operational technology, which includes data acquisition systems, control systems, industrial-class networks, and a wide variety of internet-connected devices that operate far beyond the walls of the data center. However, it is increasingly clear that the data gathered at the edge of operations can provide in- sights that agencies can use to improve the efficiency of their operations and deliver new services to support the mission. The key? Converging OT capabilities with enterprise-class IT systems in single box and deploying them at the edge. GovLoop, Affigent and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) collaborated on this worksheet to help you take advantage of this new wave of edge computing. Three Ways to Leverage OT-IT Convergence The benefits of converging OT and IT systems fall into three main categories: Physical systems Software and data Process convergence convergence convergence IT systems (compute, storage, Enterprise IT applications IT and OT teams agree to collaborate management, and security) collaborating with OT applications on end-to-end workflows and integrate in the same system chassis are applied to both traditional dataflows. with OT systems (data acquisition enterprise data and data derived systems, control systems, and at the edge. industrial networks). Leveraging Data at the Edge: A Framework By integrating OT and IT systems, agencies can create a flow of data from the enterprise out to the edge. By integrating this data, agencies can see greater insights into their operations and services.
