National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate i

22、n the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organisation to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organisations, governmental and no

23、n-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of Information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IECJTC1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting.

24、 Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least75% of the national bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO/IEC13522-6 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IECJTC1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedi

25、a information. ISO/IEC13522 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology Coding of multimedia and hypermedia information: Part 1: MHEG object representation Base notation (ASN.1); Part 3: MHEG script interchange representation; Part 4: MHEG registration procedure;

26、Part 5: Support for base-level interactive applications; Part 6: Support for enhanced interactive applications; Part 7: Interoperability and conformance testing for ISO/IEC13522-5. Annex A toAnnex C form an integral part of this part of ISO/IEC13522. Annex D toAnnex G are for information only.vi bla

27、nkBSISO/IEC13522-6:1998 BSI 07-1999 1 1 Scope 1.1 Context of the scope ISO/IEC 13522 specifies the coded representation of multimedia/hypermedia information objects (MHEG objects) for interchange as final form units within or across services and applications, by any means of interchange including lo

28、cal area networks, wide area telecommunication or broadcast networks, storage media, etc. MHEG objects can be produced by computer tools taking as source form multimedia applications designed using multimedia scripting languages. In this context, the MHEG script (or program) classes are intended to

29、complement the other MHEG classes in expressing the functionality commonly supported by scripting languages. Script (or program) objects express more powerful control mechanisms and describe more complex relationships among MHEG objects than can be expressed by MHEG action and link objects alone. Fu

30、rthermore, script (or program) objects express access to and interaction with external services provided by the run-time environment. ISO/IEC13522-5 defines the MHEG object classes for interchange and use in base-level applications intended to be run on limited resource terminals such as set-top-box

31、es in such contexts as interactive broadband services. ISO/IEC13522-5 defines the coded representation for program objects in an open manner so that program objects may encapsulate either standardised or proprietary program code. ISO/IEC13522-5 allows program objects to include or reference programs

32、 that may be encoded in any encoding format as defined by the application domain. 1.2 Scope of this part of ISO/IEC 13522 The scope of this part of ISO/IEC13522 is to define the semantics and final-form coded representation for the interchange of enhanced interactive multimedia applications. These a

33、pplications extend applications covered by ISO/IEC13522-5 in incorporating functionality such as computing (data processing) and extended communication with the external environment, including servers, local devices, etc. These applications may be exploited in any communication environment including

34、 broadcast-only mode, interactive client-server or peer-to-peer (conversational). However, the main focus is on interactive retrieval (client-server) applications running on limited resource set-top-units involving asymmetrical data interchange with real-time audiovisuals on the downstream channel.

35、The coded representation defined by this part of ISO/IEC13522 specialises the coded representation defined by ISO/IEC13522-5. Especially, this part of ISO/IEC13522 defines the coded representation for the OriginalContent attribute of the MHEG-5 InterchangedProgram class. In addition, this part of IS

36、O/IEC13522 defines the Applet class; this subclass of InterchangedProgram features the ability to manage its own display and interaction, by delegation from the engine. The resulting coded representation is compatible with that defined by ISO/IEC 13522-5; appropriate for execution on a set-top-unit

37、with the same minimal resource constraints as expressed by ISO/IEC13522-5. This part of ISO/IEC 13522 specifies the interchange format for the OriginalContent attribute of the MHEG-5 InterchangedProgram class; the semantics of this coded representation; the coded representation and semantics of the

38、Applet class; the semantic extensions to the MHEG-5 engine behaviour described by ISO/IEC13522-5; the semantic restrictions on the MHEG-5 interchange format described by ISO/IEC13522-5; the MHEG-5 API, which allows the code of an InterchangedProgram object to call upon the MHEG-5 engines presentatio

39、n functionality; the provisions for interworking between the MHEG-5 engine execution model and the execution model that underlies the program content interchange format.BSISO/IEC13522-6:1998 2 BSI 07-1999 MHEG engines are system or application components that handle, interpret and present MHEG objec

40、ts. This part of ISO/IEC13522 specifies the semantics of the MHEG-6 coded representation. These semantics are defined in terms of minimum requirements on the behaviour of MHEG-6 engines. This part of ISO/IEC13522 is applicable to all applications that interchange multimedia and hypermedia informatio
