Abstract:
This paper aims at providing a trustworthy architecture for a middleware extension, based on geolocalized context information, focused on the development of distributed interactive applications for digital TV. The proposed solution was built using the middleware Ginga. Although it has been implemented for the Brazilian Digital TV System, the architecture described in this paper can be applied to other existing Digital TV middleware with the same benefits. Among those, this work presents a project as a study case to demonstrate the solutions viability and performance analyses on its implementation furthermore this works aims to create an easier way to build distributed, context-sensitive applications.
