Virtualized Video Conferencing for Elearning

Abstract

Video conferencing has been commercially available since the video technology has become accessible on a variety of equipment, from room-based to handheld devices. The technology has also reached the point where it is viewed as a necessity and not just a nicety. The ubiquity and accessibility of video conferencing technology can save time and money across the spectrum of business processes, especially when comes to call centers. We propose a solution that can develop the communication with callers and provide a large impact on customer retention. One of the major issues regarding customer satisfaction when interacting with call centers or other types of customer support services is related to the resolution efficiency (solving the customer inquiry during the first contact), this is highly dependent with the communication solutions between the call centers department. But one thing is keeping videoconferencing from becoming a more standard form of communication: the technical difficulties that all videoconferences occasionally experience. The frustrations of video conferencing, though usually brief and irregular, may at first seem to outweigh the benefits. Connectivity problems can keep this from happening and are thus one of the most frustrating technical problems experienced by video conferences. The aim of this paper is to experiment a multimedia customer interaction platform and test the performance of a virtualized web conferencing solution focusing on the occurrence of technical difficulties associated with smooth transmissions that could result from software, hardware or network failure.

Investigating the effect of media synchronicity in professional use of video conferencing applications

“…Elsden et al (2022) found that the ubiquity of video conferencing facilitates not only remote work and learning but also enables social and personal interactions. Suciu et al (2018) noted that the ubiquity and accessibility of video conferencing can save time and money across various business processes, due to which VC apps are now viewed as a necessity, not just a nicety. The studies are a few examples depicting ubiquity as a most important characteristic of VC apps.…”

Video Conferencing Tools: Comparative Study of the Experiences of Screen Reader Users and the Development of More Inclusive Design Guidelines

“…Video conferencing systems have been in use for a number of years [55], but it is only in the last two years that they have become part of everyday life for many people. From the start of the first lockdown, video conferencing systems have allowed us to carry out numerous activities from home, such as distance learning in schools and universities, office and many other types of work, and social interaction [33], [44], and [59] that otherwise would not have been possible due to restrictions on face to face activities. These tools have evolved over the last two years, including the development of additional features and interface functionalities.…”

Peer to Peer Webrtc Multipoint Video-Conference System for E-Learning

“…WebRTC is a realtime communication technology that has integrated standards of API (Application Programming Interface) with real-time multimedia transfer such as voice and video (including codes) available to a web browser without traditional plug-in components using JavaScript code. [1] [3] Recently, there was an increase in the new platform implementation of real-time communications services: browser embedded application or "web application." Among these applications, WebRTC has received significant interest since a lot of new versions of inherently supports this API common browsers, namely Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.…”
