Abstract

The aim of the MPEG-21 standard, the so-called Multimedia Framework, is to enable transparent and augmented use of multimedia resources across a wide range of networks, devices, user preferences, and communities, notably for trading (of bits). As such, it provides an important step in MPEG's standards evolution, i.e., the transaction of Digital Items among Users. This paper provides an overview of applications making use specifically of MPEG-21 Digital Items and a more in-depth presentation of a few selected applications in research and practice.
