In the environment of single application data broadcasting, only one application can be serviced at a specific time on one channel. To overcome this, we developed the structure and the method of operation for multi-applications which are fully conformant to the ACAP (Advanced Common Application Platform), and modified data broadcasting system to support multi-applications. In multi-application environment, broadcasters can service multiple applications simultaneously at a specific airtime on one channel so users can enjoy services selectively according to their preferences. In this paper, we present an example of multi-application service which was developed to make an experiment before servicing them to users on the air. The core of the multi-application is a manager application which manages other ordinary applications, so we describe the function and structure of the manager application, and then present the experimental results to show that the proposed method is the proper model for multi-applications.

This study analyzes the latest statistics for 3 years based on the traits of market environment, internal organization characteristics(the size and distribution of workforce), and financial structure, and then, investigates the interactivity traits and drawbacks between organization and market environment, among the local broadcast stations, and, among the type of work in the internal organization, by interviewing with broadcasters working at the local stations. Major findings of this studies are : at first, statistically, the conditions of local market environment, the size of local station workforce, financial structure are very poor. And, the interactivity among the local broadcast stations have so many difficulties because of a conflict of interest. So, for getting over a difficult situation at the local stations, in addition to planning to support local stations with various policies, government and local stations should seek for solution to overcome the conflict of interest jointly.

TV 방송 분야에서 다양한 정보와 상호 작용성을 제공하기 위해서 최근 기존 방송 내용인 A/V 스트림 외 부가정보 방송이 시도되고 있다. 데이타 방송에 대한 기존 연구는 대부분 고정된 내용의 데이타를 방송하는 환경을 가정하고 있어서 그 결과가 방송 내용의 변화가 많은 환경에 부적합하다. 본 논문에서는 데이타에 대한 접근이 반복되지 않을 가능성이 높고 사용자 접근 확률을 예상하기 어려운 상황에서 응답 시간을 개선하는 방안으로 수신 데이타를 무조건 캐쉬에 반입하고 교체가 필요한 경우 다음 방송 시각이 가장 가까운 페이지를 축출하는 사용자 단말 시스템에서의 캐슁 정책을 제안하였다. 제안된 캐쉬 관리 정책은 평균적인 캐쉬 접근 실패 비용을 줄임으로써 사용자 응답 시간을 개선하며, 서로 다른 스케줄링 기법을 사용하는 다양한 방송 제공자가 공존하는 환경에서 보편적으로 효과를 가져올 수 있다.Abstract Recently, many television broadcasters have tried to disseminate digital multimedia data in addition to the traditional content (audio-visual stream). The broadcast data need to be cached by a client system, to provide a reasonable response time for a user request. Previous studies assumed the dissemination of a fixed set of items, and the results are not suitable when broadcast items are frequently changed. In this paper, we propose a novel cache management scheme that chooses the replacement victim based on the remaining time to the next broadcast instance. The proposed scheme reduces response time, where it is hard to predict the probability distribution of user accesses. The caching policy we present here significantly reduces expected response time by minimizing expected cache miss penalty, and can be applied without difficulty to different scheduling algorithms.

SBS has developed "Social DMB App" and now the service through Android market, where the viewers can produce and share their emotion related in program using twitter while watching real-time DMB broadcasting program at the same time. Previously, it is difficult to combine TV and social media because of the difference of family shared medium and individual service. But, DMB, individual mobile broadcast service, can offer new interest to the viewer by integrating social media service and broadcast. The service base was provided to the viewer where they can use original contents of broadcasters by constructing social circle and they are able to express and share their emotion through social DMB app. In this paper, introduce of development technical for social DMB app service include of configuration app servic, link of DMB broadcasting and facebook.

Recently, the convergence of the telecommunications industry through the development of network media has brought along interactive data services in addition to the traditional broadcast services by providing direct connections between the users and the broadcasters. This can be easily achieved by the combination of existing network technology and multimedia technology, but in reality, as seen in the actual implementation of IPVT, it's difficult to provide satisfactory levels of service to users due to issues of network bandwidth and problems of streaming system. In particular, a network which is able to fully support Qos/QoE, and also a fast enough channel changing technology that is satisfactory to the user, are prerequisites for IPTV success. Therefore this thesis proposes a fast channel changing technique to delivery enhanced IPTV user experience. Recent IP set-top-boxes use only a small portion of the CPU to feed Ethernet packets to the hardware decoder and play them. Thus, by making IP set-top-boxes share cached channel information and content with each other, reducing the load on the server and enhancing the channel changing time is made possible.

In this paper, we describe a new 1/4 rate robust modulation techniques for Enhanced-x VSB system which is fully backward compatible with ATSC 8-VSB standard. 1/4 rate mode Enhanced-xVSB system provides broadcasters with a wide choice of trade-offs of data rate vs amount of robustness of enhanced data for pedestrian/mobile services. Lab test results of proposed Enhanced-x VSB 1/4 rate mode robust stream are a significantly improved multipath as well as AWGN reception performance for Enhanced-x VSB receiver. We suggest an Enhanced-x VSB terrestrial broadcasting system for ATSC HDTV and pedestrian/portable TV simultaneous broadcasting service providing.

In this paper, we propose a system that can analyze appearance interval of casts by detecting and recognizing casts in broadcasting videos. The cast is one of the most important characteristics in broadcasting videos such as drama and sports. In this paper, we propose the ACAV(Automatic Cast-list Analysis in Videos) system that analyzes cast-list automatically in video. The ACAV system consists of FAGIS(FAce reGIStration) which registers detected faces into the face DB and FACOG(FAce reCOGnition) that analyses the cast-list in video sequence using the face DB. We evaluate performance of the ACAV system by comparing with FaceIt, one of the most well-known commercial systems for the cast-list analysis. The ACAV shows face detection and recognition rates of 84.3% and 75.7% that are about 30% and 27.5% higher than those of FaceIt, respectively. The ACAV system can be applied to mass broadcasting videos management system for broadcasters and video management system of PVR(Personal Video Recorder) and mobile phone for the public.

The development of the latest emotional recognition and multimedia technology has changed the traditional broadcasting system. The previous broadcasting system, which was operated by the terrestrial broadcasters, is now transformed to the viewer-centered and bidirectional broadcasting through the convergence of internet, mobile and smart TV. In this paper, smart-phone application for estimating human emotion(sadness, anger, depression) has been developed and emerged with smart TV, thereby we can present broadcasting service for enhancing the sense of common humanity among people of same group. If there is friend in the depression, we can bring comfort to him by inviting one for TV program what I watch and having a honest talk with facial avatar or emoticon. The proposed emotional broadcasting service inter-working with smart-phone application can give feeling of belonging and happiness to the people suffering from the blues, and it can prevent him from attempting suicide. In addition, smart-phone based emotional broadcasting service can be expended to program recommendation service customized to user's emotion, emotional LED lighting service to maximize the sense of reality and home shopping service taking advantage of the mood of customer.

In this paper, in today's highly complex video and broadcast operations, broadcasters are constantly challenged to reliably deliver low-latency, high-quality video to multiscreen audiences on-air and online. The Adaptive Bit Rate (ABR) protocols enable internet video to a wide range of multiscreen devices. However, video quality is often marginal and would prove unacceptable for valued linear broadcast content delivered to the Big Screen today. The Media information processing technology advances in ABR enables service providers to take control and offer quality managed linear video services to ALL screens in the home, including the Big Screen, with a single unified IP Video infrastructure. The New Multiscreen-Assisted ABR (MSA-ABR) delivery management system proposed using Cloud based multicast-assisted ABR for a broadcast facility that performs routing of contribution content and online publishing services within a virtual, centralized cloud infrastructure.
