  • The Evolution of the Set-Top Box: Current and Future Trends Affecting Return Path Data Measurement
    The evolution of the set-top box: Current and future trends affecting return path data measurement Analysts: Matt Stump, Karen Brown Prepared for the Council for Research Excellence by One Touch Intelligence © 2012 One Touch Intelligence, LLC. All rights reserved. INDEX 4 Multichannel video program distributors 9 Gaming consoles 12 Smart TVs/Blu-ray players 15 Internet video set-top boxes 25 Tablets/smartphones 26 Summary 2 The evolution of the set-top box — September 2012 INTRODUCTION The set-top box world dominated by cable, DBS and telephone companies is evolving into a more fractured environment for the delivery of live linear programming and video-on-demand content from broadcasters and cable networks. The growth in broadband subscribers and Internet speeds plus the rapid adoption of all manner of digital devices have created a second ecosystem adjacent to the current pay TV environment. Content providers that have been shut out of traditional channel delivery are finding Internet aggregators only too happy to test the limits of the pay TV ecosystem by giving consumers choices beyond traditional broadcast and cable network lineups. At the same time, many of these online aggregators represent an opportunity for content providers to extend the visibility for much of their library product. Such providers also present a promotional opportunity for newly produced content. For multichannel video program distributors (MVPDs), online aggregators present both a cord-cutting threat and a broadband opportunity, since consumers need a broadband connection to access such services. As content distribution has spread to new outlets, new devices have been created for consumers to view that content.

  • Making Innovation Work, First Edition
    Praise for Making Innovation Work, First Edition “This is the book I wish I had read thirty years ago. Making Innovation Work is an important resource for leaders who are trying to improve innovation in their organizations. It’s crammed with examples and practical ideas that can trigger improvements in innovation, starting tomorrow!” —Lew Platt, Chairman of Boeing, former Chairman and CEO of HP, and former CEO of Kendall-Jackson Wine Estates “Davila, Epstein, and Shelton remind us that even if the end product is rocket science, the process need not be. To the contrary, tried-and-true practices of management, process, metrics, and incentives are all that it takes to let innovation happen consistently.” —Andrew Beebe, President, EnergyInnovations “Making Innovation Work is a fresh approach to systematically manag- ing innovation. It integrates the innovation management literature in a way that is insightful, creative, as well as pragmatic. Davila, Epstein, and Shelton have particularly fresh insights on learning, culture, leadership, and executing change. This book will be of great help to those managers leading innovation and change.” —Michael Tushman, Paul R. Lawrence MBA Class of 1942 Professor of Business Administration, Graduate School of Business, Harvard Uni- versity, and author of Managing Strategic Innovation and Change and Winning through Innovation “This impressive book offers specific techniques for driving systematic, repeatable, and managed innovation at all levels in your company. It will help you build a balanced portfolio that integrates both incremental and radical innovations—so you can sustain growth indefinitely, instead of flaming out.” —Guerrino de Luca, President and CEO, Logitech “Making Innovation Work provides an excellent roadmap to innova- tion: its various facets, why each facet matters, and how they can be enhanced—separately and collectively—in any organization.

Social media uses web-based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media utilization is believed to be a driving force in defining the current time period as the Attention Age. A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value. Distinction from industrial media People gain information, education, news, etc., by electronic media and print media. Social media are distinct from industrial or traditional media, such as newspapers, television, and film. They are relatively inexpensive and accessible to enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information, compared to industrial media, which generally require significant resources to publish information.

    Alphabet Alphabet 2020 Annual 2020 Report 2020 Rev2_210419_YIR_Cover.indd 1-3 4/19/21 7:02 PM Alphabet Year in Review 2020 210414_YIR_Design.indd 1 4/15/21 3:57 PM From our CEO 2 Year in Review 210414_YIR_Design.indd 2 4/15/21 3:57 PM To our investors, You might expect a company’s year in review to open with big numbers: how many products we launched, how many consumers and businesses adopted those products, and how much revenue we generated in the process. And, yes, you will see some big numbers shared in the pages of this report and in future earnings calls as well, but 22-plus years in, Google is still not a conventional company (and we don’t intend to become one). And 2020 was anything but a conventional year. That’s why over the past 12 months we’ve measured our success by the people we’ve helped in moments that matter. Our success is in the researchers who used our technology to fight the spread of the coronavirus. It’s in job seekers like Rey Justo, who, after being laid off during the pandemic, earned a Google Career Certificate online and was hired into a great new career. And our success is in all the small businesses who used Google products to continue serving customers and keeping employees on payroll … in the students who kept learning virtually on Google Classroom … and in the grandparents who read bedtime stories to grandchildren from thousands of miles away over Google Meet. We’ve always believed that we only succeed when others do.
