Personalisation. 8.3.1. On receipt of the base co-branded NCC and confirmation of the quantity of co-branded NCCs to be personalised, the personalisation process will start and take approximately 4 (four) weeks to complete.

Personalisation. Constraints created and signalled by the broadcaster as described in Section 3.4 above, should normally be applied: failure to do so could result in unsatisfactory experiences by the audience. However, it is possible that manufacturers would benefit from the freedom to differentiate their products from others by having different personalisation processing. One example foreseen is for hard-of-hearing listeners, where the foreground/background balance might be changed beyond what is signalled as permissible to create something more distinctive. Dynamic range compression (DRC) has two distinct approaches: one lends itself to personalisation much less than the other. The first requires the broadcaster to signal how much compression to apply, either by indicating an input-output transfer characteristic - a "profile", or by transmitting a gain coefficient for each coded frame of audio. The second passes responsibility and control entirely to the replay device and the listener. Dynamic range compression controlled by the replay device allows much more individual personalisation, and can be done in a way that is aware of the environment. BBC R&D, in collaboration with Xxxxx Xxxx University of London, has developed a technique that uses the microphone in the replay device, such as a mobile phone, to measure environment noise and adapt dynamic range control accordingly [15]. Initial assessments of the technique show a high degree of satisfaction. It is planned to incorporate the algorithm into the mobile app, such that its impact on quality of experience can be assessed further, in more realistic scenarios.
Personalisation. Users often lack sufficient personal time or motivation to evaluate the potentially overwhelming number of choices that a content provider, e.g., such as a media streaming service, may offer. The issue of digital content overload may be alleviated relying on a basic strategy that provides the same piece of content to each user (e.g., the most popular or trendy object) or developing a personalised approach, whose core is the individual user with his/her specific needs. There are many reasons why a service provider may want to exploit a personalised technology for content delivery, proven by numerous successful applications in e-commerce (e.g., Xxxxxx.xxx) and in media content delivery (e.g., YouTube, Pandora Internet Radio). From a commercial perspective, a strategy tailored to individual users’ needs and tastes increases the number of transactions and at the same time increases the diversity of offerings, suggesting not just popular content but also niche ones. From a user perspective, a personalised strategy allows them to increase two dimensions, often running in parallel: user satisfaction and user fidelity. A well designed system would be able to not only satisfy a temporary need, but also to raise loyalty in customers. In a world where a media provider’s competitors are only ‘a click away’, gaining customer loyalty is an essential business strategy [1]. Numerous approaches have been proposed in the literature to deliver content in a personalised way [4]. A common strategy is to rely on the past behaviour and opinions of an existing user community to predict which media asset the current user will be more interested in. In other words, the idea is that if users shared similar interests in the past, they are likely to have common tastes in the future. The growing popularity of social networks has paved the way for a variant to this “community-based” approach: the content is provided to the user taking into consideration the preferences of his/her friends, based on the insight that people tend to rely more on suggestions from their friends, i.e., people they trust, rather than on suggestions from similar but anonymous individuals [2]. Another popular strategy exploits the characteristics of the actual content to deliver to the user. Content may be represented by means of a set of features (e.g., the genre of a song or the visual/audio resolution of content) and the user profile may be defined as an assignment of importance to such features, exploiting us...
Personalisation. The Partners are committed to supporting and maintaining person centred planning. The Partners are committed to ‘personalisation’, giving people more independence, choice and control through high-quality and personalised services, whereby the Service Users are able to commission their own services and to live independently.
Personalisation. Kirklees Council aim to commission a flexible approach to Service delivery by giving Service Providers more scope regarding how and when Services are delivered in close consultation and negotiation with Service Users and their Carers. The focus will be for Service Providers to be creative, innovative and to organise Service delivery in a range of ways to achieve agreed outcomes for Service Users and Carers who must be at the forefront of all decision making. This will be achieved as follows:
Personalisation. Rather than doing things 'to' or 'for' people, we are working ‘with’ people to support them to regain and retain the skills and motivation needed to achieve independent lives and to support them to direct the support that they may need to achieve this. We currently offer Direct Payments to those able and willing to manage their own care. This offers greater choice and flexibility and empowerment. We are further developing our policies to extend the options available to people, in line with the proposals in the Social Care (Self Directed Support) Bill (Scotland). We anticipate an increase in the number of people receiving a Direct Payment over the next five years. In order to fully understand our activity in relation to personalisation we will measure the number of people receiving Direct Payments alongside the activity relating to the additional self direct support options offered. These options will also be offered to carers who are in need of service and support. Carers Unpaid carers are key partners in the delivery of the health and social care across the city. This invaluable role will become more important as a result of demographic and social changes. In order to sustain carers we need to provide support and services, as well as breaks from caring to enable them to enjoy a quality of life out with their caring role. We are committed to improving how we support carers and we will work towards recommendations from the National Carers Strategy 2010-15. We recognise that carers need to be partners across all levels of service delivery and when they need support it will be flexible and meet their needs. One of the many ways to support carers is to provide short breaks to people. While we strive to measure outcomes for carers and improve the support they receive, we have begun by measuring the provision of respite as a proxy measure of how we support carers. We will continue to increase the number of respite weeks provided and we will continue to apply anticipatory approaches to reduce the amount of emergency respite required. These measures will be monitored and reviewed as more meaningful baseline data is developed. Protection Unfortunately, there are people living in our communities who are at risk from harm. We have a statutory obligation under the Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act 2007 to protect people and keep them safe. Our multi agency structures and processes are focussed on making people safer by creating a more informed public, invest...
