Recent years have brought many changes to the world of mass media.
The In ternet and mobile communications technology have provided
consumers with interactive digital services. Television is catching
up with this trend through the digitalization process. Digital
television is a hybrid platform combining elements from classical
analog television and the Internet, providing modern multimedia
services on a familiar platform. In short, digital TV is a gateway
to the world of interactive digital media. Digital TV brings
consumers into the television service arena and offers them new
degrees of freedom. However, as the service and multimedia content
types diversify and the services and their content increase,
television is facing many of the same challenges of complexity and
information overflow faced by other digital media. Metadata can
handle the diverse services and content of digital TV effi. ciently
and in a consumer-friendly way. Metadata means that the data are
accompanied by other data which describe them. As data about data,
meta data can provide an insight into syntactically and
semantically complex data by distilling their essence to a set of
simple descriptors. Metadata also helps to structure and manage
information in diverse settings. The use of metadata in broadcast
multimedia should not be restricted to being merely a tool for
coping with the challenges of a complex networked multimedia
environment. Instead, metadata ofTers new opportunities for the
development of innovative services.
