Abstract

A media mashup system functions as a virtualizable endpoint called an Intelligent Multimedia Pod, or IMP, that ensures a reliable and high-quality multimedia user-experience for a variety of mobile user devices such as intelligent phones etc. The media mashup platform uses a web 2.0 media mashup model that offers several key features including Near Real Time (NRT) service continuity, control-proxy for a mobile-friendly web-surfing experience, finely-filtered content aggregation based on meta-data, context sensors and buddy blaster content sharing/recommendation. These features are brought together using a web 2.0 service mashup model that integrates media meta-data together with various context sensors including mobility-related sensors such as location and presence, time-of-day, voice commands, as well as time-shifted playback.
