  abstract = {This book provides a comprehensive examination of the use of MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MPEG-7, MPEG-21, and MPEG-A standards, providing a detailed reference to their application.
In this book, the authors address five leading MPEG standards, focusing not only on the standards themselves, but specifically upon their application (e.g. for broadcasting media, personalised advertising and news, multimedia collaboration, digital rights management, resource adaptation, digital home systems, and so on); including MPEG cross-breed applications. In the evolving digital multimedia landscape, this book provides comprehensive coverage of the key MPEG standards used for generation and storage, distribution and dissemination, and delivery of multimedia data to various platforms within a wide variety of application domains. It considers how these MPEG standards may be used, the context of their use, and how supporting and complementary technologies and the standards interact and add value to each other.
Key Features: * Integrates the application of five popular MPEG standards (MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MPEG-7, MPEG-21, and MPEG-A) into one single volume, including MPEG cross-breed applications * Up-to-date coverage of the field based on the latest versions of the five MPEG standards * Opening chapter provides overviews of each of the five MPEG standards * Contributions from leading MPEG experts worldwide * Includes an accompanying website with supporting material (www.wiley.com/go/angelides_mpeg)
This book provides an invaluable reference for researchers, practitioners, CTOs, design engineers, and developers. Postgraduate students taking MSc, MRes, MPhil and PhD courses in computer science and engineering, IT consultants, and system developers in the telecoms, broadcasting and publishing sectors will also find this book of interest.},

  abstract = {Currently, much research aims at coping with the shortcomings in multimedia consumption that may exist in a user's current context, e.g., due to the absence of appropriate devices at many locations, a lack of capabilities of mobile devices, restricted access to content, or non-personalized user interfaces. Recently, solutions to specific problems have been emerging, e.g., wireless access to multimedia repositories over standardized interfaces; however, due to usability restrictions the user has to spend much effort to or is even incapable of fulfilling his/her demands. The vision of user-centric multimedia places the user in the center of multimedia services to support his/her multimedia consumption intelligently, dealing with the aforementioned issues while minimizing required work. Essential features of such a vision are comprehensive context awareness, personalized user interfaces, and multimedia content adaptation. These aspects are addressed in this paper as major challenges toward a user-centric multimedia framework.},

  abstract = {The adaptation of multimedia resources is a common method to enable the transport and consumption of audio-visual content in constrained environments. An important aspect in this field is adaptation decision-taking, which aims to find adaptation parameters that maximize the quality for the consumer while considering the constraints of the networks and terminals involved. In this paper we focus on improving the adaptation of audio-visual content by maximizing the perceived quality. This can be realized by using a multimedia quality model and content-related metadata. We present an approach to derive this content-related metadata from subjective tests and use it for adaptation decision-taking within the MPEG-21 multimedia framework.},
