Abstract

In this paper, we describe an innovative approach for handling faults occurring in digital television broadcasting networks. While in traditional network management systems operators are notified about individual device's faults, the system we propose is centered around faults as perceived by the final user (e.g., absence of the audio component in a given channel), without losing the possibility of clearly identifying the corrupted device(s). The system is equipped with a notification component based on a peripheral display acting as an ambient or alerting system based on the criticalness of the alarm.
