ITU-R BT.1889 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R BT.18891Common application environment for interactive digital broadcasting services (Question ITU-R 131/6) (2011) Scope This Recommendation specifies a common application environment to

9、 be used for interactive digital broadcasting services. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) the need to avoid protocols proliferating for interactive multimedia services; b) that digital broadcasting services (satellite, terrestrial, and cable) are becoming widely available and offer

10、 multimedia applications; c) that multimedia applications have been developed that comprise video, audio, still picture, text, graphics, etc. associated with interactive features; d) that multimedia applications planned or deployed in some regions are using the executable application environment as

11、described in Recommendation ITU-R BT.1722; e) that multimedia applications planned or deployed in some regions are using the declarative application environment as described in Recommendation ITU-R BT.1699; f) that Recommendation ITU-T J.200 defines the worldwide common core of application environme

12、nt for digital interactive television services; g) that the ITU-R and ITU-T Sectors are continuously working and reviewing Application Programming Interfaces (APIs); h) that common application environment for interactive TV applications is desirable for production and international exchange of multi

17、h-level architecture of APIs and middleware for digital interactive TV can be regarded as essentially comprising two components: the execution engine and the presentation engine. However, these two components are not necessarily independent; appropriate bridges may be defined. In addition to the bas

18、ic components, there will be other native applications, or service-specific software and content, such as MHEG, as well as various proprietary formats. Figure 1 shows the structure of the application environment. It identifies the relationship between the presentation engine and the execution engine

Presentation engine/execution engine These are major components to handle interactive TV applications and are both required. The presentation engine handles declarative TV applications such as HTML and BML content. The

21、 execution engine is a processor that executes interactive TV applications. It is recognized that, in some cases, one or the other has been implemented individually. However, to achieve full harmonization and worldwide interoperability of applications, both execution engine and presentation engine a

22、re required. 2. Bridge elements This is a mechanism for applications that allows bidirectional mapping between the execution engine and presentation engine. 3. App lifecycle monitor This controlling software is expressed differently in each specification. It can appear as a full-fledged application

23、or just a simple OS monitor to control the state of the software. The general functionality is to manage applications over its entire life cycle, including initiation, termination, and control. 4. Applications In some systems these applications can be limited to service-bound applications or unbound

24、ed applications. These applications can be written either to the presentation, the execution, or both. 5. User interaction This is the input layer into remote control, keyboards, and other controllers. 6. Other media This media includes streaming media such as audio and data feeds or monomedia such

25、as static images and text. 7. Native software This is software that is either legacy software or software written using additional APIs and functionality outside the specified application environment. 4 Rec.

Basic Java Functionality This APIs consists of the personal basis profile, foundation profile and connected device configuration. 2. Extensions for B

28、roadcasting This API consists of the javax.tv.* packages as specified by Sun Microsystems in the JavaTV specification plus additional broadcasting functionalities such as section filtering, transport stream tuning, resource management, and return channel connectivity management (e.g. DAVIC or Ginga-

29、J). 3. Presentation extension for media This API consists of the javax.media.* packages by Sun Microsystems. 4. UI extensions for TV This API provides TV specific functionality for presentation and user interaction e.g. HAVi UI API or LWUIT. 5. Extensions for access to service information and networ

CSS style sheet to describe presentation style as defined by W3C. 3. DOM APIs to dynamically change the contents of HTML or XHTML documents a

TV Specific Extensions and additional APIs and DOM Objects for handling signalling, triggers, protocols, and MIME types specific to TV receivers and receiver-specific functions. 7. Standard media types such as image/jpg, image/png, audio/basic and TV specific media types such as video/mpeg as defined by ISO. 8. XML parser as defined by W3C.
