Abstract | Due to the heterogeneity and complexity of user environments and multimedia services and content in the communication domain, adaptation is of a paramount importance. Adaptation decisions at the different stages of service authoring and delivery to the end user depends on contextual information that characterises the situation of entities involved in the interaction between the user and the service. This paper presents how the Adaptation Manager processes and models contextual information. The use of different standards and technologies such as MPEG standards, Description Logics and OWL are explained. The paper illustrates how the Adaptation Manager complements the decision making framework defined by MPEG-21 DIA |
