1:43 am
a very resource intensive process but despite that our server is what we call light in the sense that a large number of simultaneous video streams are processed using relatively cheap hardware for comparison. the way video server that process is a thousand to fifty zero streams costs about half a million dollars however with our software the same number of streams can be processed on a server that costs only five thousand dollars such big cost savings can turn into huge ones for companies like ross telecom with nearly fifty million subscribers nationwide the russian telecoms giant turned to spirit video must is helping traditional connection companies go digital at a fraction of the cost a part of that is this federal project called electronic government which allows people to get answers and even apply for services via video connected terminals when exact source searching for the right software set up at the call center there was really only one option. that was practically nobody that could offer an else of

welcome back to technology update in the mobile world congress in barcelona there's so much to do and see in the action packed four days that people are constantly on the move to make sure they don't miss tomorrow's next headline yes it's easy to get caught up in the bright lights and fancy displays but in reality many were in town to hammer out agreements and important deals. in the news around the time it was a simple call at this point it's a truly international brand with operators in around twenty countries inside russia however the company is best known for its b. line brand who recently announced that they pinned a deal with china mobile the agreement will give their subscribers the ability to reach all numbers in china directly without having their calls routed through a transit network operator. but they weren't the only ones looking to make

a little news at barcelona there's also switzerland based but russia centric s.p.p. t.v. joining on the wealth of i know how and russia's northern capital the company got its start in the late one nine hundred ninety s. as s.p.v. software house a few years back the t.v. focused department was spun off as a separate business had passed gatherings here the company found its first super sized clients and hopes to continue its luck with new hardware and advertising options that has been if it's for just about everyone under the sun. block in new hardware and. is kind of space we have. influence with one of the technology of our customers like most to see how the change at the time. existing advertisement continuously was at the time and which is better to monetize this is good for the customer because everyone gets more money then for the use of what's the view which is because they look at
1:48 am
advertisement as more meaningful for everyone to be left out of the fund russia's reigning high tech champ yandex was in barcelona to continue their push for an alternative eco system they announced a new version of their three d. interface as well as officially opened store but first they had to figure out how to attract developers before they built up users as well as how to attract users without newly developed apps we solved the problem of the chicken and egg by pushing licenses from some applications from helper is a well known player in this market say we're not starting from scratch which would have been insanely difficult we've already got quite a few applications to offer. however this wasn't the first time yandex has turned to the norwegian firm for cooperation. had previously provided its traffic compressing turbocharger for yandex browser last year so it's already around fifty thousand apps ready for download this press to offer its biggest rival a little friendly competition. but for one through it although android is
1:49 am
a de facto open platform there's no viable competition no other companies that can match for example google play. us that it's a no company's d.n.a. to off an alternative and that's why we have a search engine is a mail service we have a popular cloud service we have maps that work so we decided to offer an alternative which would be a good thing. times have changed for old school games like this with every day physical toy makers or be. squeezed down by the processing power of computers technology now in the palm of your hands to deliver killer graphics and gameplay you can now turn your smartphone into both game console and controller. but in recent years much of the industry hasn't been about super shiny hardcore games but the much more relaxed and family friendly casual.
1:50 am
one of the heavy hitters in this sphere is game insight only three years ago it's made its way to the top of the industry's elite. city which is among the top apps for a time last year. furthered its winning streak with paradise island which was reportedly the company's top performer powered devices at the beginning of two thousand and thirteen however the company's go to game has been mystery manner. over two thousand and twelve all told its take in more than forty million dollars and the company was rated as one of the top twenty publishers. just as you'd expect the two were on hand in barcelona to give visitors a new way to see and experience their games take a peek inside and you were treated to a three d. version of one of their fan favorites and their stand itself also a few critics got a shout out as one of the top exhibits in barcelona on p.c. mag dot com there are many ways to make it big but top execs think they found
1:51 am
a model that gives the best of both worlds going to games that all games from gaming sites are totally free so that you can play any games as much as you want to charge it's not a fellow looking for additional features like slightly improving your weapons or say expanding the territory or just boosting your energy levels so that you can play more actively then you can pay a small amount of money to do that and have even more fun playing and that's the only business model game inside here. that the enemies spread out across. the company has more than five hundred minds behind that idea. h.q. producers artists and programmers are working on what they hope to be the company's next big hit the majority of their offerings are strategic builder games which remind old timers like me of the sim city series from my childhood i may not be the first thing that pops to mind right away but putting together. the casual games

like these are far more time and effort than one might expect from the right balance between difficult intertainment is the hallmark of a successful game. despite being so young the company boasts more than one hundred . worldwide. smartphone is killing some time money game inside game doesn't the company estimates players over. to their screens. every year the company looks to keep its early successes. such achievements and can comment and profits aren't the only thing the company has managed to generate the creative juices it gave have given birth to a startup right next to one another. takes a traditional pastime and gives it a digital twist the underlying idea there comics in. the same way users take them in is undergoing a major shift with people nowadays never too far away from their smartphones or

tablets traditional content makers have a unique opportunity to deploy technology to their benefit. didn't come out of thin air but was nurtured along by those with earlier success. it was the head of game insight. who came up with this idea companies are really close at the open in fact offices in the same building just a couple of floors apart one day and the other two co-founders of a company were discussing plans for the future thank him up with the idea to go into interactive content we know how to create great games so let's try something new. at the. moscow office to see just what's possible and how it could be changing how many people interact with traditional forms of media. they're not trying to totally reinvent the wheel here they are attempting however.

each scene has to be drawn by hand which of these days is of course all digital but every line in shadow is the result of a carefully placed pin stroke once they have the completed drawings the next step is to give them life and put motion and emotion behind the text. what do we mean by editing program ours is a web oriented you can import stuff from a lot of different sources like adobe after effects for example so we take these frames and import them directly to our h.t.m.l. editor which we then use to put together an interactive episode then the episode is uploaded to the narrate platform. you can access the completed editions by their apps for android devices but if you're looking for something i think you've got what it takes anyone will have the chance to publish a potentially interactive content in their rates platform. if someone wants to create his or her own interactive book and they go to the
1:57 am
website and add a page like i'm doing right here they vent choose vision. and a design template from the ones we have available then you choose the audio files and the interactive elements that will be added to the page with a simple click of the mouse then you click publish and the book goes to one of our reviewers who looks at it and if it's consistent with our rules it gets published. so will this lead to a wider revolution in terms of book publishing as a whole it's tough to say at the moment but the future of print media is certainly a topic that's up for discussion at the very least technological advances the biggest change perhaps challenged since the time of your highness gutenberg. in my opinion the prevalence of it. printed books will decline significantly in the
1:58 am
near future and of course they won't disappear completely i mean they will be in libraries and museums for years to come but it won't be like it was say twenty years ago. we didn't have the chance but if we surveyed those at mobile world congress there would likely be more than a handful of maniacs that foresee the end of paper books as we know it but after four hectic days filled with gadgets and software solutions people in the exhibition hall started packing up and buzzing towards the exits. as you can see the festivities here in barcelona are coming to a close fortunately though with the devices and innovations you've seen today we're more than mobile enough to make it back to moscow so see you next time until then enjoy the ride. speak your language. programs and documentaries in arabic it's
