The CISCAI project launches its  maiden  LIVE VIDEO STREAMING TECHNOLOGY,  in time for the First CISCAI WIMAX  Engineering Workshop, happening from 16-20 March 2009 in Bangkok, Thailand. The CISCAI WIMAX Workshop  is organized in cooperation with  the National Electronics and Computer Technology  Center (NECTEC) of Thailand.

The video streaming  technology  has been designed  to be viewed even
by   computer networks that are located behind  network firewalls ( a
firewall is an integrated collection of security measures designed to prevent unauthorized electronic access to a networked computer system). "The (streaming) system does not require a public IP address to perform  streaming server  capability", says Mr. Bambang Wijayanto,  CISCAI System Administrator,  who developed and integrated the system in-house.

The system uses  binary streaming transfer to transport  video packets from Bangkok, Thailand,  to the CISCAI server located  in Jakarta, Indonesia  (which acts as some kind of a reflector) and  which subsequently re-broadcasts  the video feed  via the CISCAI website  to the rest of the world via the Internet.  The system hopes to overcome the problem of low bandwidth  requirement for video to be viewed effectively and efficiently.

This is a TRIAL TEST, and  some delay  in video packet delivery during the streaming process may be expected. If proven successful and effective, the system will be adopted in future CISCAI events.
