Abstract

In this paper, we present early considerations on the design of a multimedia transport service. The proposed design provides not only support for Quality of Service (QoS) and group communications, but also has the property to treat multimedia communications “as a whole”. This differs from most of the current transport services which transfer multimedia data as several independent monomedia.

This work was partially supported by the Commission of the European Communities under the RACE M1005 project ACCOPI: “Access Control and Copyright Protection for Images”.
