Caratteristiche scritto in linguaggio C librerie grafiche GTK+ progetto ufficiale GNU Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 4 Gnome: evoluzione Durante i primi anni rimane solamente una “brutta copia” di KDE. A poco a poco, grazie al contributo di volontari ed aziende importanti, vengono introdotte molte novità, tra cui una nuova interfaccia utente ridisegnata da zero. Contributori Intel Nokia IBM HP Sun Red Hat Canonical Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 5 Gnome: obiettivi Durante la fase di riprogettazione è stato deciso che l'interfaccia e tutti programmi avrebbero dovuto soddisfare delle “Human Interface Guidelines”, ovvero delle direttive di progettazione per rendere l'utilizzo da parte degli utenti facile ed intuitivo. Human Interface Guidelines interfaccia intuitiva disposizione razionale coerenza tra diversi software Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 6 Gnome oggi Gnome è arrivato alla versione 2.20 ed è, insieme a KDE, il desktop più utilizzato in ambito Linux. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 7 Gnome: le distribuzioni Al momento Gnome è il desktop manager più supportato dalle aziende ed è la scelta predefinita sulle più importanti distribuzioni: Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 8 Gnome: le applicazioni Esistono molte applicazioni di uso comune create dal progetto Gnome o che utilizzano le sue librerie GTK+ e che quindi risultano ben integrate con l'ambiente desktop. Esterne Progetto Gnome Mozilla Firefox/Thunderbird AbiWord Adobe Acrobat Reader Evolution Pannello driver ATI The Gimp Synaptic Inkscape Pidgin (ex Gaim) Nautilus Ekiga Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 9 Gnome: gli strumenti di configurazione Sebbene ogni distribuzione abbia le utilità di configurazione specifiche Gnome fornisce degli strumenti standard per la configurazione delle impostazioni più comuni. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 10 KDE: le origini Il progetto nasce nell'ottobre del 1996 dall'idea di Matthias Ettrich, all'epoca anch'esso, come Torvals, studente universitario. L'obiettivo era quello di realizzare un ambiente grafico di lavoro per Unix che fosse “bello” e “coerente”. I predecessori di KDE erano infatti abbastanza caotici e le applicazioni avevano comportamenti diversi. Caratteristiche scritto in linguaggio C++ librerie grafiche Qt multipiattaforma Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 11 KDE: fol«K»lore Uno dei predecessori di KDE è stato il Common Desktop Environment (CDE) sviluppato da HP, IBM e Sun. Il nome deriva appunto da un gioco di parole sostituendo la parola Common (normale) con Kool (storpiatura di “cool”, ovvero fantastico). Da allora è tradizione che le applicazioni KDE contengano quasi sempre una “K” nel nome. Esempi amaroK Kopete KMail Akgregator K3B Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 12 KDE: pregi e difetti KDE segue un approccio diverso da Gnome e lascia più libertà nella scrittura delle applicazioni agli autori. Vantaggi maggiore quantità di applicazioni interfacce orientate alla funzione programmi di altissima qualità (K3B, amaroK, KPDF) Svantaggi interfacce meno uniformi tra programmi diversi varie applicazioni che svolgono funzioni simili miriadi di opzioni disperse in menù intricati Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 13 KDE: Konqueror Konqueror è l'applicazione più importante di KDE in quanto svolge la stragrande maggioranza dei compiti necessari ad un utilizzo domestico. Esso è in grado infatti di funzionare come file manager, browser web, client a sistemi remoti (ftp, ssh) e visualizzatore di qualsiasi tipo di file grazie alla possibilità di inglobare al suo interno altre applicazioni KDE. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 14 KDE: Konqueror Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 15 KDE: amaroK amaroK è un bellissimo player musicale che fornisce tramite una semplice interfaccia moltissime funzioni: download delle copertine degli album, dei testi delle canzoni, gestione della collezione per artisti/album, dei gusti musicali e molto altro. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 16 KDE: K3B K3B è un programma di masterizzazione CD e DVD ispirato da Nero. È in grado inoltre di codificare e decodificare musica, video da CD audio, DVD e filmati. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 17 KDE: di tutto, di più Per KDE esistono applicazioni per tutte le necessità; ad esempio KtechLab è uno strumento di progettazione di circuiti elettronici, BibleTime è uno programma per lo studio della Bibbia in varie lingue, tra cui anche l'aramaico (!!!!). Potete trovare tutto ciò che vi serve su http://www.kde-apps.org/. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 18 KDE e le Qt KDE è basato sul toolkit grafico Qt sviluppato da Trolltech. Le Qt sono disponibili per Windows, Linux e Mac e sono utilizzate da programmi come Skype, Scribus, Quanta, pannello driver HP, Google Earth, Opera, Adobe Photoshop Album. Diego Rondini Gnome e KDE 28 set 2007 - Montebelluna 19 KDE: il futuro La prossima versione sarà KDE 4, in uscita questo dicembre. Le novità saranno moltissime sia per quanto riguarda le librerie (la struttura portante), sia per quanto riguarda l'interfaccia con l'utente.

  • ILS-SUMM: Iterated Local Search for Unsupervised Video Summarization
    ILS-SUMM: ITERATED LOCAL SEARCH FOR UNSUPERVISED VIDEO SUMMARIZATION Yair Shemer1, Daniel Rotman2, and Nahum Shimkin1 1Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Technion, Haifa, Israel 2IBM Research, Haifa, Israel [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in building video summariza- tion tools, where the goal is to automatically create a short summary of an input video that properly represents the original content. We consider shot-based video summarization where the summary consists of a subset of the video shots which can be of various lengths. A straightforward approach to maximize the represen- tativeness of a subset of shots is by minimizing the total distance between shots and their nearest selected shots. We formulate the task of video summarization as an optimization problem with a knapsack-like constraint on the total summary duration. Previous studies have proposed greedy algorithms to solve this prob- lem approximately, but no experiments were presented to measure the ability of these methods to obtain solutions with low total distance. Indeed, our experi- ments on video summarization datasets show that the success of current methods in obtaining results with low total distance still has much room for improvement. In this paper, we develop ILS-SUMM, a novel video summarization algorithm to solve the subset selection problem under the knapsack constraint. Our algorithm is based on the well-known metaheuristic optimization framework – Iterated Local Search (ILS), known for its ability to avoid weak local minima and obtain a good near-global minimum. Extensive experiments show that our method finds solu- tions with significantly better total distance than previous methods.

  • Look Ahead to Improve Qoe in DASH Streaming
    Look Ahead to improve QoE in DASH streaming Román Belda, Ismael de Fez, Pau Arce, Juan Carlos Guerri Institute of Telecommunications and Multimedia Applications (iTEAM), Universitat Politècnica de València, Camino de Vera, 46022, Valencia, Spain e-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] phone: 34-963879588 Abstract. When a video is encoded with constant quality, the resulting bitstream will have variable bitrate due to the inherent nature of the video encoding process. This paper proposes a video Adaptive Bitrate Streaming (ABR) algorithm, called Look Ahead, which takes into account this bitrate variability in order to calculate, in real time, the appropriate quality level that minimizes the number of interruptions during the playback. The algorithm is based on the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) standard for on-demand video services. In fact, it has been implemented and integrated into ExoPlayer v2, the latest version of the library developed by Google to play DASH contents. The proposed algorithm is compared to the Müller and Segment Aware Rate Adaptation (SARA) algorithms as well as to the default ABR algorithm integrated into ExoPlayer. The comparison is carried out by using the most relevant parameters that affect the Quality of Experience (QoE) in video playback services, that is, number and duration of stalls, average quality of the video playback and number of representation switches. These parameters can be combined to define a QoE model. In this sense, this paper also proposes two new QoE models for the evaluation of ABR algorithms. One of them considers the bitrate of every segment of each representation, and the second is based on VMAF (Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion), a Video Quality Assessment (VQA) method developed by Netflix.
