Exploring MPEG-4 BIFS features for creating multimedia games

چکیده
This paper explores the new features of the recent MPEG4 standard, namely the description and the composition of an interactive multimedia scene. Providing with such advanced facilities, the MPEG-4 standard is no longer considered only as an efficient compression tool for conventional video / audio application. It is now granted the power of computing mechanism as any other programming languages to facilitate the creation of high interactive multimedia contents. Game-applications therefore can be also considered as a new output-feature of the MPEG-4 standard. The work describes in detail how game can be created within the MPEG-4 framework. The process of making game with MPEG-4 is studied comprehensively to demonstrate the compatibility as well as the advantages of the MPEG-4 standard regarding to Flash technology, a well-known tool for making games over the Internet.

We present the results of a comparative analysis between the Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL) and MPEG-4 BInary Format for Scenes (BIFS). SMIL is a language developed by the W3C consortium for expressing media synchronization among objects of various media types. MPEG-4 BIFS is the scene description scheme of MPEG-4, an international standard for communicating interactive aud...

Besides demonstrating the powerful capabilities of the recent MPEG-4 standard, namely the composition and interactive facilitation of multimedia contents, the work points out some shortcomings of the standard in supporting these advanced features in the “light level”, i.e. in the scope of BIFS. The work also outlines some solution to overcome the problems. The goal is to improve the performance...

The MPEG-4 BIFS and MPEG-4 LASeR are parts of MPEG-4 standard for describing multimedia scenes in binary format. Scenes are multimedia presentations consisting of text, graphics, animation and real contents such as images, videos, and audios. BIFS and LASeR scenes can be written in XML format and then be encoded into binary format for the consumption of MPEG-4 terminals. While BIFS is a stable ...

MPEG-4 supports object-based interactive multimedia applications. To compose complex multimedia scene, MPEG-4 supports BIFS and XMT as scene description. For interoperability of the MPEG-4 content and object-based rendering information management, this paper proposes the content analyzer that supports multiple scene description. In order to improve content management’s efficiency, the content a...

This paper is a review of the audio rendering capabilities in the MPEG-4 standard. The basic model for describing the audiovisual scene in MPEG-4 is the scene graph (BIFS), which is based on the VRML model. MPEG-4 extends the model with a quite complete acoustics modeling framework. The different versions of the standard are discussed as well as the different approaches (physical and perceptual...
