Princeton, NJ -- Triveni Digital today announced that the company's
CTO, Dr. Rich Chernock, will be a speaker at the IEEE Distinguished
Lecturer series at the IEEE Broadcast Technology Society (BTS)
Montreal Chapter. Scheduled for Oct. 21 at Concordia University,
Chernock's lecture will address DTV technology and incorporate
tutorials explaining the inner workings of DTV — and MPEG-2
transport, in particular — with respect to broadcast, cable, DTH,
and IPTV services. Chernock also will discuss strategies for
efficient DTV monitoring and for cost-effective entry into mobile
television delivery. |

Chernock is active in many of the
ATSC and SCTE standards committees, particularly in the areas of
metadata, monitoring, and data broadcast. Within ATSC he chairs a
number of ad hoc committees whose work relates to metadata and
transport issues. He is vice-chair of the Technology Standards Group
(TSG) and chairs the Non-Real-Time Services and Mobile/Handheld
management layer activities within ATSC. He is also a participant in
the SCTE HMS activity.
"Though North America has transitioned to DTV broadcasting, members
of the industry continue to face challenges posed by the complex
technologies and standards underlying this shift," said Chernock.
"The emergence of new opportunities, such as mobile DTV, further
complicates the broadcast landscape. However, with an understanding
of DTV fundamentals and transport mechanisms, broadcasters are
better equipped to maintain a high-quality broadcast today and to
launch new revenue-generating services tomorrow."
Introduced by the IEEE BTS, the Distinguished Lecturer program
provides society members with opportunities to enhance their
professional knowledge and vitality, and to stay informed of the
latest research results and their practical applications. The
Montreal event is sponsored by IEEE BTS, IEEE Montreal, and
Concordia University.
