As we proceed, we will focus on a number of key topic areas; the growth of new ‘cloud’ (private & public) based infrastructures, the convergence of OTA broadcast with streaming services & multi-format broadband delivery, emerging new immersive formats, and initial ISO/MPEG work on AI.

M-S techniques provide useful sound-field positioning and a convenient way to check mono compatibility. We explain the hard science behind this often misunderstood technique.
If we take cloud infrastructures to their extreme, that is, their physical locality is unknown to us, then monitoring them becomes a whole new ball game, especially as dispersed teams use them for production.
