Model-Driven Creation of Staged Participatory Multimedia Events on TV

摘要

Broadcasted television shows are becoming more interactive. Some shows even let home viewers without professional equipment be part of a broadcasted television show. Staged Participatory Multimedia Events on TV take this approach another step further. In this type of television shows, viewers can not only participate in the show through interaction or videostreams, but also direct the show. In this paper we discuss this type of participation TV into more detail and discuss the models allowing quick and graphical creation of the structure of a format. The models can be serialized to a set of XML-files, which can be interpreted by the ParticipationTV runtime. Working proof-of-concept implementations for creating the models, generating the XML-files and the runtime that interprets the XML-files have been realized.
