Abstract:
In our digital society, any user can become a producer of media. With the heterogeneity of devices, which vary in their capabilities or hardware resources, the question of accessing these media in a meaningful and usable context grows more important, as devices and users are more and more interconnected through digital services. To encounter the various challenges these observations present, with the Semantic Ambient Media Framework, this article proposes a framework, in which media, devices, and services are extended and interconnected through semantic models for various contexts. Providing a Web-based API, the framework allows applications and devices to access media, which are provisioned through the framework’s services. These services are automatically tailoring the media, depending on the semantic information on the context they are used in, their semantic interconnection with other media, and the specific application, device, and context they are accessed from. This contribution illustrates the concept and system architecture of the Semantic Ambient Media Framework from a developer’s perspective and describes a practical scenario, in which the framework is already utilized, concluding with an outline of future work.
