- Abstract:
- MPEG-21 introduces the idea of adapting multimedia
content depending on things such as terminal capabilities, surrounding
environment, user's preferences etc. It proposes
using a set of XML descriptors to describe all these
attributes. Due to the complexities of dynamic environments
and terminal capabilities, a large number of descriptors
will be needed. However, depending on different scenarios,
or the users context, not all of these descriptors will
be needed. The idea of using Intelligent Agents to
generate a reduced set of descriptors could save on bandwidth,
processing power, and improve the way users interact with
multimedia. The Intelligent Agents would have learning
capabilities, context and environment awareness to
make these decisions without any user intervention.
