August 26, 2010 (Burbank, CA) Xytech ‘ the global leader in resource, work order and asset management solutions ‘ has announced that key additional developments to its highly regarded MediaPulse Transmission product will be unveiled at IBC 2010. MediaPulse Transmission, which premiered earlier this year at NAB, is specifically designed to master the multi-faceted operational issues facing broadcasters and transmission service providers. MediaPulse Transmission brings Xytech’s proven record of innovation to the satellite and fiber transmission environment, extending management of complex satellite and fiber inventories into the digital supply chain via MediaPulse’s SOA based Web Services.
Through this integration, details of bookings are easily transmitted to other systems in the transmission chain, satellite inventories can be checked in real-time, and feed statuses are reported back to users through task based Operations Screens, notification emails, and system alerts.   With its unique and flexible user interface, MediaPulse Transmission stores technical specifications of all services, performs parameter-based conflict checking, and manages complex pricing structures via the new MediaPulse Pricing Engine.

Developed in collaboration with industry clients and experts through technical best practices, MediaPulse Transmission brings a new generation of scheduling and optimization management tools to satellite providers, broadcasters, cable systems and teleports, representing a significant improvement over existing solutions.   MediaPulse Transmission is built on Xytech’s industry-standard MediaPulse platform, combining enterprise-wide operational control with underlying financial management for the first time.

Expanded features of MediaPulse Transmission include:
•       Expanded SOA Web Services
•       Multiple source and destination logic
