"My colleagues working on FIMS have been exemplary, and the attention has established these efforts."
EBU executive of Technology Innovation Lieven Vermaele remarkable that the endowment established the work completed to date.
"FIMS has right away delivered a plain base-layer specification, but it will blossom in conditions of services and functionalities demanded by new applications and use cases," he added.
