A Method and System for Consolidating Multimedia Object Management in Heterogeneous Media Systems
Författare
Summary, in English
media with different play-out devices. Currently we are
heading towards a situation where for example cellular
content providers, the home entertainment industry and
networked multimedia over the Internet provide different
content and dirferent formats that are incompatible with
devices from the other systems. This is in stark contrast
with the current trend in the distributed systems and
Internet communities where consolidation and
interoperation of heterogeneous technologies is a prime
target. If the vision of a future integration of different
multimedia capable devices should become realiy, we
must Consolidate the usage of multimedia objects and
enable each player to use the different formats. This
paper suggests a method and system to achieve such
consolidation. We present our initial work and
protopping.and aim at stirring a debate around the
system to stimulate interest and future research.
