A second screen web service framework based on multimedia package distribution

The media multitasking is general user behavior nowadays as the second screen devices, such as tablet PCs, are widely spread. The content providers and advertisement industry figure out this phenomenon as an opportunity and attempt to develop various types of second screen services. However, the conventional second screen services are confined in the broadcasting and over-the-top application. Therefore, a second screen Web service framework based on multimedia package distribution is proposed, which is compatible to different kinds of operating system, heterogeneous network and various Web browsers. The multimedia package, which consists of multiple multimedia objects, is distributed to the second screen device according to the user profile. The proposed model is implemented to verify the Web-based second screen service framework and multimedia package concept detailing the functionality of each component.
