| What is the Viametrix Virtual Network™? | |
| Vivian® Says... | The Viametrix Virtual Network™ is a distributed overlay for IP networks which provides the most significant scalability. stability and consistent quality of service deliveries available. Unlike competitive networks, artificial intelligence is utilized by each network member to continually manage its own network connectivity and performance. This provides the maximim amount of bandwidth that may be used for delivering media - not managing the network. It is accessed for purposes of broadcasting and viewing streaming media utilizing the Vivian™ applications to broadcast and receive streaming audio and video. |
| What makes the Vivian™ streaming media solutions different and better than all other streaming solutions? | |
| Vivian® Says... | Better Network Technology The Viametrix Virtual Network™ is a software-based self-healing, self-sorting and self-organizing network array of personal computers that allows a media organization (audio/video broadcaster) to stream its audio or video to a very wide audience for a fraction of the costs incurred utilizing first generation solutions. It is not a traditional or simple peer-to-peer network because of the artificial intelligence-driven, massively distributed dynamic network array management deployed. Implementation of our application on the media broadcast server and for each client is very simple and straightforward. Our solution maximizes the amount of network bandwidth for distributing media - not managing the network. Lower Cost Because Vivian™ is a software-only solution, there are no proprietary hardware requirements beyond those necessary to encode a live stream using any industry standard hardware. Viametrix’s solution drastically lowers the bandwidth costs of the streaming media broadcaster without limiting the number of prospective end users or negatively influencing the quality of service. Viametrix provides the lowest total cost of ownership available in the commercial marketplace. Controllable Cost Because the pricing of Vivian™ is a simplified, easy-to-understand and control streaming organizations can set budgets and plan their future delivery costs with great ease and accuracy. Scalability No other streaming solution can scale with the ease and efficiency of the Viametrix Virtual Network™. The unique distributed management inherent in our technology places virtually no management load on the originating broadcast server or any other member of the network. This is the fundamental difference between our patent-pending technical sophistication and that of simple peer-to-peer companies seeking to utilize a first generation software solution. |
| Can the Viametrix Virtual Network™ be used for distributed/grid computing? | |
| Vivian® Says... | The Viametrix Virtual Network™ is technically capable of supporting distributed/grid computing (e.g., utilization of networked computers to execute processes); however, that capability is not implemented at this time. |
| Does the Viametrix Virtual Network™ or Vivian™ support collaborative computing? | |
| Vivian® Says... | The Viametrix Virtual Network™ could be used to support collaborative computing at this time, but this is not incorporated in the Vivian™ implementation for mulitmedia presentation broadcasts. |

| What level of quality of service (QOS) can I expect with Vivian™ broadcasting solutions? | |
| Vivian® Says... | We have worked very hard to provide a very high level of quality of service for Vivian users. Ensuring a consistent level of service starts with Viametrix Virtual Network™ (VVN). The patent-pending technology employed in the management of the network ensures that it is the most scalable, most robust and most bandwidth efficient available. The Vivian™ client application is continuously monitoring its own quality of service which ensures virtually no dropped frames and a very consistent user experience. |
