Abstract

Access to relevant information, adapted to user's needs, preferences and environment, is a challenge in many applications running in content delivery platforms, like IPTV, VoD and mobile Video. In order to provide users with personalized content, applications use various techniques such as content recommendation, content filtering, preference-driven queries, etc. These techniques exploit different knowledge organized into profiles and contexts. However, there is not a common understanding of these concepts and there is no clear foundation of what a personalized access model should be. This paper contributes to this concern by providing, through a meta model, a clear distinction between profile and context, and by providing a set of services which constitutes a basement to the definition of a personalized access model (PAM). Our PAM definition allows applications to interoperate in multiple personalization scenarios, including, preference-based recommendation, context-aware content delivery, personalized access to multiple contents, etc. Concepts and services proposed are tightly defined with respect to real applications requirements provided by Alcatel-Lucent.
