It has given us the ability to take control of our TV viewing activities. We can now interact with our TV set in a way we might have thought impossible a few decades ago. With the push of a button we can schedule TV recordings, stop and even rewind the broadcast. Users are now able to control what they want to view, when they want to view it. TV sets have also evolved and gained a new set of functionalities, they have become smart, allowing us to connect o the Internet and decode media files that are inputed through usb ports and streamed through the network or the Internet. But the TV is no longer the center of our multimedia experience, now we have new ways to access the TV content we have subscribed. Viewing TV on a laptop, a smartphone or even a tablet is now more and more common. Cloud Computing (CC) has also brought us some revolutions, we can now have systems that grow and adapt on-the-fly to the conditions presented to them. An application can extend it’s storage capacity in a matter of minutes, and the same can be said of the processing power of the underlying platform. Our objective in this work is to discuss the possibility of creating a synergy between both services. By creating a system where IPTV and CC would interact, we could create a service that would provide IPTV anytime and anywhere. With the possibilities CC brings we can move the Set-top Box (STB) to the cloud and create new service functionalities and reduce the cost of having to install a STB in every client. We have focussed our work in the simulation of a CC infrastructure that would host Virtual STB’s that would be accessible from wherever there would be a network connection.Macedo, JoaquimUniversidade do MinhoBenta, Zacarias José Miranda2013-06-102013-06-10T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/27816eng201094967info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-21T12:25:44Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/27816Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T19:20:03.131393Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
