We are conducting a comprehensive study for the European Commission into the
development of satellite, terrestrial and cable digital broadcasting systems
and services and its implications for education and training.
Of particular interest to the study is the development of interactive
learning services; which are capable of transmitting multimedia learning
content to the home, office or learning establishment via consumer or low
cost receivers. Together with digital "broadcasting" services (one to many),
the study will also look at "narrowcasting" services (one to a few) and
"on-demand" services (one to one) such as "video-on-demand". The study is
also looking at other competitive technologies like xDSL technologies over
existing telephone lines and broadband access via cable modems.
We are trying to identify all key organisations within Europe and from other
parts of the World that are actively involved; or are planning developments
in this area. To help us provide an accurate picture of current trends, we
would appreciate if you could take a couple of minutes to answer the
following three short questions.
1. Are you involved in; or planning to be involved in providing systems and
services for interactive digital broadcasting operations?
2. If yes, could these be used for education and training purposes?
3. Do you know of any other organisations that are planning or actively
involved in developing such systems and services?
If you have answered yes to any of these questions please can you provide us
with further details and full contact details of a named person who we could
contact for further information within your own or another organisations.
