TDTASK: Through a Universal Platform for the Development of t-Government Services

摘要

The TDTASK project was intended to allow for the acquisition of knowledge and skills in the development of novel interactive television e-government services, called t-government. Because of its high penetration and openness, Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) became an important communication channel to bring public services to citizens. Through the project, a multichannel platform for dynamic generation of t-government services was developed using the Multimedia Home Platform (MHP) specification. In the first phase of the project, basic services are programmed by a new methodology based on XML. Once finished, volunteer users take usability tests. The second phase of the project focuses on the develop of more powerful and useful t-government services.
