Abstract

In this paper, we describe a novel architecture for content and delivery validation for IPTV systems. The system generates multimedia events derived from IPTV content analysis and its delivery. Events are aggregated, filtered and, through a rules-based system, processed and prioritized to provide monitoring and alerting capabilities. Offline event processing along with a video archiving capability allows for detailed forensic analysis. The novelty of the approach includes the correlation and the combination of content-specific and network-specific events in a normalized representation to allow for complex forensic monitoring and alerting. Applications include content security assurance and metadata verification.
