Paolo Cremonesi, co-founder and chief technology officer of Moviri, and the person behind ContentWise’s core technology research, has the distinct honor of presenting a white paper on the advances of recommendation engine technology at this year’s NAB Show 2012 in Las Vegas.
The paper, titled “Client-side Recommendations: Content Discovery Systems for One-Way Broadcast Networks” will be included in the proceedings of the NAB Broadcast Engineering Conference, in the “Next Digital Transition for Television” track.
