Exploring an open, distributed multimedia framework to design and develop an adaptive middleware for interactive digital television systems

Published:14 March 2004Publication History

ABSTRACT

Interactive digital television systems should provide concepts of middleware for harmonizing and abstracting discrepancies related to hardware and operating systems issues. In such a context, this paper explores a framework for configuration and management of open, distributed multimedia systems with the purpose of designing and developing a component-based adaptive middleware for interactive digital television systems, which incorporates mechanisms for specification, configuration, management and reuse of resources and components.
