Abstract

Connected Consumer Electronics (CE) devices face an exponential growth in storage, processing capabilities and connectivity bandwidth. This increased complexity calls for new software architectures that naturally admit self-organization, resource management for efficient workload distribution, and a transparent cooperation of connected CE-terminals. The interconnected nature makes advanced applications feasible such as the smart distribution of complex multimedia content analysis algorithms, resulting in automatic semantic content-awareness creation. In this paper we describe a modular, self-aware, self-organizing, real-time and distributed multimedia content analysis system. Based on a Service Oriented Architecture it is, furthermore, capable of efficiently and dynamically using the available resources in a grid-like manner.
