Abstract
Digital information has reached all types of expression and, above all, it acquired important properties: portability, mobility and ubiquity. Moreover, with multimedia content being produced at a fast pace, the question of how one can effectively search and process the growing offer of content is immediately raised. We address these demands, proposing a modular, flexible and scalable framework that fully integrates content representation and description from early stages of authoring. A prototype, supporting the MPEG-4 and MPEG-7 standards, has been implemented to prove the concept and is being used as a test platform for multimedia content adaptation.
