<b>Understand the MPEG-21 Multimedia Framework, the standard for the creation, delivery and consumption of multimedia.</b> <p>This text is <i>the</i> comprehensive guide to MPEG-21, the technology that provides an open framework for multimedia applications. Whereas previous MPEG standards defined compression techniques, MPEG-21 offers methods for the search, access, storage and Rights protection of content. <i>The MPEG-21 Book</i> offers a complete introduction to standardisation, before proceeding to discuss the vision behind MPEG-21, what ‘Digital Items’ are, how they are adapted and how their contents can be protected. The book provides coverage of the individual parts of the standard to an advanced level, with chapters dedicated to each of the core technologies. The authors describe not only the present situation, but also emerging developments and the relation of MPEG-21 to the other MPEG standards, giving essential insights into the future of MPEG and its impact on multimedia.</p> <p><i>The MPEG-21 Book:</i></p> <ul type="disc"> <li>Provides an accessible explanation of the MPEG-21 standards and specifications.</li> <li>Presents a comprehensive overview of the technical issues that MPEG-21 covers, including the foundational Digital Item Declaration, Digital Item Identification, Digital Item Adaptation, and Digital Item Processing.</li> <li>Offers in-depth and up-to-date coverage of Rights Expression Language and Rights Data Dictionary.</li> <li>Provides first detailed treatments of Event Reporting and IPMP Components.</li> <li>Reviews the new MPEG technologies Multimedia Middleware, Multimedia Application Formats (MAFs) and Digital Item Streaming.</li> </ul> <p><i>The MPEG-21 Book</i> will provide an essential resource to researchers, engineers, Internet designers, systems designers, and content providers, creators and distributors in the entertainment and broadcasting industries.
