Abstract:
Distributed multimedia presentation mechanisms which provide self-content adaptation are required in order to support heterogeneous devices and to incorporate user preferences in the presentations prior to their play-out. In this paper, we propose a proxy-based architectural framework where standard MPEG-21 concepts are incorporated to perform adaptation. We also propose a graph-based content adaptation algorithm able to determine the best set of services to employ, in order to deliver the requested content effectively. The Quality Of Service (QoS) specifications are decided by the user dynamically. Here, we show the set of experimental tests conducted to validate our architecture efficiency.
