Metadata - The Key to Content Management Services
Link to this resource Large scale multimedia services have great need of content management systems. Metadata has a key role to play in allowing such systems to be built and automated. A management system composed of multiple distributed components is described. Each component implements a service such as content validation, transcoding, search or generation; and relies on metadata information to achieve success. Metadata specification, security, transport, and storage needs have been identified through the implementation of prototype components. Although the technology employed in each of the management components is often straightforward, the impact on organisational processes and interworking may be significant.  | This paper describes work at BT Research Labs to use metadata for multimedia content validation, an application ripe for metadata schema. Their work does not apparently use schema at all. |  |
