optimize the Internet as well as
applications for Television sets
? How can you take
data from your TV

losing quality? These questions are the focus of the second “

is taking place on the 8th and 9th of February 2011 at Fraunhofer

forum where they can exchange ideas. Other topics for discussion
include the prevalence and standardization of new Web technologies
including HTML5, Interoperability and Digital Rights Management.
