H3G : Italy (UI)

For the entire year 2004 I have been responsible of the User Interface team of H3G, having the role of a technical project manager. The framework used by H3G has been developed on top of a commercial product called Mariner-Volantis. With the use of this framework it was possible to deliver web pages built with different components (text, images, links, scripts) device dependent. At the time of the implementation Volantis infrastructure was not able to choose Multi Media Asset (MMA) based on device capabilites, and in order to overcome this limitation we have built a custom j2ee application that, using some Mariner components, was able to choose the best MMA based on different device capabilities: frame rates, bit rates, audio/video formats, streaming/download features and so on.
