External Site: Berkeley Internet Broadcasting System (BIBS)[info]
BIBS is an interactive television system constructed using Internet2 Mbone IP-Multicast technology and Real Networks streaming media technology, being developed on the UC Berkeley campus to support distance learning, distributed collaboration, and interactive television applications. BIBS produces live webcasts, then archives these for on-demand replay (at least 100 Kbs bandwidth required). The schedule for 2001 includes lecture series on General Biology, General Chemistry, Computing, Classic Myths, Aging, Microelectromechanical Systems, Mathematics, Nutrition and Physics. Most of the lectures use Real Media and the individual schedules are clearly laid out, although not all lecture titles are given.
