Framework de gestão de notícias regionais em canais de televisão

Abstract

In recent years, it has been a news hyper localization trend by national news TV channels aiming a more rapid and effective approach by the viewer to the news that is relevant to him. However, journalists are mostly directed towards capturing sound and image, neglecting the potential of audiovisual content. The computer hardware performance evolution has made possible the television content production environments virtualization and the use of new open-source and cloud based technologies allows the interconnection of all the journalists spread across the national territory, making it possible to create a network of contributions that are closer to the news locations. Thus, this paper proposes to develop a platform in a virtual environment capable of integrating the content contribution, production, management and distribution phases, allowing the interconnection of the various journalists located in different parts of the country. In this way, it becomes possible to reduce costs and logistic load of this television system, in addition to using available resources in a more intuitive way. The goal is also to decentralize the computing power of the cloud and to perform some of the data processing closer to the source, which can optimize aspects such as latency, bandwidth costs when sending to the cloud and data privacy. This is a trend seen in recent years since the cloud has become not efficient enough given the amount of data that is now produced and transported to it.
