Media Service Composition Sample Clauses

Media Service Composition. This section describes the media service offered by the city fame scenario. The overall media service is composed of a set of service functions (SF) which together make up a Service Function Chain (SFC). Each SF is described in respect to its purpose and relation to the overall scenario. Description Media Quality Analysis This media component analyses the media content generated by a user with regards to its quality. Media tags such as content length, file format, size, bit rate or frame rate are first indicators of the suitability of the media file. Based on whether it is audio, video or a picture this component also assesses clarity of speech or blurriness of pictures and videos. The main objective is to provide an immediate feedback to the use about the content quality. Visual Image Analysis The visual analysis of media content has the main objective to allow the assessment of the recorded information. One of the two main tasks is the identification of runners in pictures and videos. This task is achieved via face recognition and optical character recognition of the start number at the runners’ running outfit. The other main task is the assessment of inappropriate and offensive content in the media content uploaded by visually and audibly assessing the content. Database The database component is the central place to store and provision knowledge about states and historically measured data required to generate user profiles, interest groups and the relationship among them. Transcoding The transcoding component allows to de- and encode uploaded content into the formats required for the various content consumption devices. Content Provisioning This media component is essentially the content store where content is located. This content encompasses text, pictures and videos. Static Template Content This media component simply offers modular web templates for interactors to present media content to the end users. Relationships of Media Components The media component relationship chains for the follow me scenario are illustrated in Figure 9. At the bottom of Figure 9, two media service initiators are illustrated, i.e. an application on the mobile end device of a user and a public display on the main square of the city (public viewing). All six media components which serve a particular purpose, as outlined above, are drawn in rectangular boxes and are interconnected by arrow lines illustrating the initiating and serving media component (arrow points towards ser...

Media Service Composition. A media service is composed of several media components which form the media service described in the narrative above. This section describes the decomposed media service offered by the follow me scenario. Each decomposed media component is described with regards to its purpose and relation to the overall scenario. Description of Media Components Service Authentication This media component allows all service endpoints (application, smart fixed audio device and display) to authenticate themselves against the “Follow Me” service. Knowledge Database This media component keeps state about the preferences of a user and the outcome of the analysis of various data points (e.g., last played contents, visited locations, etc.) to build the knowledge required to make decisions towards a personalised media experience. The data stored in this function is a mix of user and service monitoring data retrieved from the media application and from the FLAME platform. A correlation and aggregation mechanism can be part of the function and could be embedded in the instantiated function entity: this functionality could be named user preference analysis. Swipe Me Over This media component allows the user to change the recipient of a media source seamlessly from a fixed smart audio device to the user’s mobile device (and vice versa). Content Provisioning The provisioning of content is realised in by this media component which holds the resources an initiator has requested. Relationships of Media Component The media component relationship chains for the follow me scenario are illustrated in Figure 10. At the bottom of the diagram three media service initiators are illustrated and envisaged in the scenario,
Media Service Composition. A media service is composed of several media components which form the media service described in the narrative above. This section describes the decomposed media service offered by the gnome trader scenario. Each decomposed media component is described with regards to its purpose and relation to the overall scenario. Description of Media Components Database This media component keeps all states related to players and plants such as plant trading activities and locations, liquidity of users and the trading history of a particular player. Plant Provisioning The provisioning of computed plants is the key task for this media component. Seed Templates All plants are derived from seed templates which are used when a player virtually plants a new plant somewhere in the city. The templates provide the input to the plant compute component. Each seed corresponds to a plant template: when the player combines seeds, the templates of the different seeds are merged to create a new template. User Authentication This media component allows a user to authenticate against the media service using pre-defined authentication schemes such as OAuth. Relationships of Media Component The media component relationship chains for the follow me scenario are illustrated in Figure 11. At the bottom of the media component relationship diagram (see Figure 11) the media service initiator “App” is depicted representing a user and its Gnome Trader application installed on the user’s mobile device. The application communicates with the authentication service to enter the game and uses the plant compute and the database component to display and trade plants on the user’s display using the augmented reality app. Once the user plants a new plant the plant compute component obtains the requested seed template(s) from the seed template component, depicted on the top left in Figure 11. Upon a successful computation of a new plant the plant provisioning media component makes it accessible to players.
Media Service Composition. A media service is composed of several media components which form the media service described in the narrative above. This section describes that decomposed media service. Each decomposed media component is described with regards to its purpose and relation to the overall scenario. Description of Media Components Database This media component keeps all of the information about the multimedia content, the user, and the user story experience history. User Authentication This media component allows a player to authenticate against the media service using pre-defined authentication schemes such as OAuth. User Authentication will distinguish between the experience provider and the end user. Story Compute This media component serves as the storytelling engine. It considers the physical location of the user and other parameters to determine which multimedia information to display, obtaining suitable information from the FLAME platform. The activity of the user is recorded in the database. This media component will inform the caching manager about the predicted location of the user for asset placement in the network. Caching Manager According to the predicted future locations of the user, this media component securely stores multimedia content in asset storage components. We assume the caching manager to operate under the assumption that assets are generally retrievable due to the network-level indirection capability of FLAME (see Section 2.5). Hence, predictions are speculative to reduce retrieval latency, while still relying on those possible indirections in case the ‘closest’ asset storage does not hold the requested asset. Asset storage This component is distributed in the FLAME network based on some geo-cost planning by the media service (e.g., focussing on certain locations in the city). It acts as a secure content delegation server, i.e., it has name authority (acting under xx.xxxxx.xxxxx.xx) while not holding content authority. With this, content is retrieved securely without the asset storage knowing the name and/or content of the particular asset, increasing security and privacy for the end user. Relationships of Media Components The media component relationship chains for the follow me scenario are illustrated in Figure 12. At the bottom of the media component relationship diagram the media service initiator “App” is depicted representing a user and its Interactive Storytelling application installed on the user’s mobile device. The application communic...
