Bridge Technologies' Simen Frostad Named To Streaming Media Dream Team 2011

Bridge Technologies has announced that its chairman, Simen Frostad, has been named to Streaming Media Magazine's Dream Team for 2011.
Each year, Streaming Media Magazine has named a Dream Team of those it considers to have made outstanding contributions in the field of online media and who "share a passion for online video that goes beyond their own companies or products".
Eric Schumacher-Rasmussen, Streaming Media Manager Editor, said: "This year's Dream Team is a cross section of both established veterans and up-and-comers in the European online video space. They represent not only 'traditional' elements of online video, such as content delivery and streaming services, but also the associated creative, social and monetisation pieces without which the industry cannot grow. It's our most diverse Dream Team yet, and I congratulate all of its members."
Bridge Technologies' Chariman Simen Frostad said: "It's very exciting to be included in the 2011 Dream Team, and for us at Bridge Technologies, it reflects the importance we place on informing the market about quality issues in digital media delivery. Ensuring good quality of service is not only a matter of deploying the right tools and systems, but also about knowing how to use them effectively. That's why a lot of what we do it focused on spreading the word on the real issues in monitoring and analysis for digital media."
Frostad's contribution to monitoring is demonstrated in Bridge Technologies systems including the award-winning VideoBRIDGE integrated monitoring ecosystem, which offers an innovative approach to the monitoring and analysis of converging services employing stream-based IP packets. Compatible with all major stream-based industrial standards such as MPEG-2, H.264/AVC, DVB/ATSC and ETSI TR 101 290, VideoBRIDGE offers a complete end-to-end system for the continuous quality assurance of a network from satellite to set top box. Available with a range of probes designed for every application within the media delivery chain, VideoBRIDGE is configurable as a complete monitoring system, or can be integrated with third-party management environments.
