MPEG-21 Digital Item Adaptation (DIA) has recently been finalized as part of the MPEG-21 Multimedia Framework. DIA specifies metadata for assisting the adaptation of Digital Items according to contraints on the storage, transmission and consumption, thereby enabling various types of quality of service management. This paper provides an overview of DIA, describes its multimedia applications, and reports on some of the ongoing activities in MPEG on extending DIA for use in rights governed environments. |
