These video and audio data are consequently analysed using a number of techniques, in order to try and make sense of what was happening at the time of the recording, sometimes in relation to initial hypotheses or sometimes in terms of a 'post hoc' analysis where a more grounded approach is used. This paper contains an overview of tools and techniques for examining video data and looks at potential new methods borrowed from the field of learning analytics, related to discourse analysis. Discourse analysis, where conversations and the spoken word are explored and dissected in detail, can provide us with information about the learning context and the ways in which learners interact with people and other resources in their environment.

Video-prototyping A communication tool for services design

This case study seeks to offer a first insight on how the tool of video-prototyping can be offer in an academic institution as part of the curriculum of a product design course. In particular, it explores the impact of video prototyping in product design students design projects and explains what are the tool reach and limitations.
The case study has been conducted in the Product design and the Product Design Engineering courses at a design school. Those courses have evolved to adapt to different social and productive influences from various eras. In recent years, their development has been heavily influenced by two primary factors: First, the growing awareness of the environmental impact of mass production and, secondly, the expansion in our society of service-based economy. For this reason, both courses have been implementing the teaching of video-prototyping as a communication tool.

Responding to its time, the film posits a distinct vision and artistic practice, one espousing a digital aesthetic intended to create a radical sense of intimacy.

Television, Ecotourism, and the Videocamera: Performative Non-Fiction and Auto-Cinematography

Camera-crews-as-characters, cameras-as-props, the filming of tourists filming themselves–does this technological reflexivity ad nauseam signify industrial solipsism, a mise en abyme, the foregrounding of the background, or just an audience interested in television production?

Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) in Overlay Multicast

The applicability of the existing RTCP reporting architectures in overlay multicast and ALM  environments are investigated and the new features that may be required are discussed in this document.

Multipath RTP (MPRTP)

However, RTP and RTCP assume a single delivery path between the sender and receiver and make decisions based on the measured characteristics of this single path. Increasingly, endpoints are becoming multi-homed, which means that they are connected via multiple Internet paths. Network utilization can be improved when endpoints use multiple parallel paths for communication. The resulting increase in reliability and throughput can also enhance the user experience. This document extends the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) so that a single session can take advantage of the availability of multiple paths between two endpoints.

Towards a High-Level Audio Framework for Video Retrieval Combining Conceptual Descriptions and Fully-Automated Processes

new architectures combining multiple characterizations of the video content that rely on highly expressive frameworks while providing fully-automated indexing and retrieval processes. As a matter of fact, addressing the problem of combining modalities within expressive frameworks for video indexing and retrieval is of huge importance and the only solution for achieving significant retrieval performance.
This paper presents a multi-facetted conceptual framework integrating multiple characterizations of the audio content for automatic video retrieval. It relies on an expressive representation formalism handling high-level audio descriptions of a video document and a full-text query framework in an attempt to operate video indexing and retrieval on audio features beyond state-of-the-art architectures operating on low-level features and keyword-annotation frameworks. Experiments on the multimedia topic search task of the TRECVID 2004 evaluation campaign validate our proposal.
