A Content Model for the Mobile Adaptation of Multimedia Information

摘要

Abstract. The emergence of mobile Internet services has introduced a set of transmission and presentation stan- dards that aim to address multimedia. At the same time, the limited resources of cellular networks and terminals set strict requirements to the bandwidth--limited transmission and presentation. We propose a new abstract model to adapt and represent multimedia in mobile environments to meet these restrictions. The model includes a layered mapping of semantic and physical entities and is combined under the taxonomy of “multimedia adaptation” to optimize an end--to--end mobile service. Our technique is media and presentation format independent and easily absorbs additions. We conclude with an example mobile service that utilizes the proposed techniques.
