Video Technology for Storage and Distribution of Personalised Media

The realisation of social multimedia systems depends on the availability of numerous technologies, including solutions for distribution, description, storage and personalisation. With multimedia (and in particular video) as a social medium, requirements on infrastructure are becoming more challenging compared to previous-generation systems based on textual communication. This is because rich multimedia, which includes video content, poses a much larger informational load on the system. For instance, if in Twitter each message consisting of up to 140 characters is replaced by a 1-min video, it would take a massive infrastructure to support such functionality.
