2、tion T.137 (02/2000) i ITU-T RECOMMENDATION T.137 VIRTUAL MEETING ROOM MANAGEMENT FOR MULTIMEDIA CONFERENCING AUDIOVISUAL CONTROL Summary This Recommendation defines the functionality required to deliver a combined voice- and data-conferencing (audiographics) service; it is architected to deliver su

3、ch services using generic and extensible mechanisms that are independent of the underlying transports used for delivering the real-time media streams. In future revisions this scope is expected to broaden to cover all media services used within a conference. This protocol extends the Generic Confere

4、nce Control Recommendation (T.124), adding the capability to define and manage virtual meetings spaces within the GCC conference. It provides a means to seamlessly integrate all of the media components being used within a meeting. These virtual meeting spaces can be regarded as representing meeting

5、rooms where audio, video and data communication can take place. The functionality provides support for a number of virtual meeting scenarios including round-table meetings, informal meeting spaces and conferences with audiences. The protocol provides inherent support for multi-room scenarios. The pr

6、otocol will find application in support of enhanced audio conferencing and audiographics conferencing services. The aim is to provide an holistic approach to the management of the meeting room involving multiple media, while providing the flexibility to adapt individual meeting rooms in response to

7、user requirements. The object of standardizing this functionality is to provide a basis for interoperability between client applications and conferencing services.

8、edure on 17 February 2000. Recommendation T.137 (02/2000) iiFOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is respons

9、ible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the I

10、TU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standar

11、ds are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibili

12、ty that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the R

13、ecommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest inf

14、ormation and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. Ge3 ITU 2001 All rights reserved.

28、s 131 Recommendation T.137 (02/2000) 1Recommendation T.137 VIRTUAL MEETING ROOM MANAGEMENT FOR MULTIMEDIA CONFERENCING AUDIOVISUAL CONTROL 1 Scope This Recommendation provides extensions to the Generic Conference Control functionality to support the specification and management of virtual meeting sp

29、aces (meeting rooms) within a conference. It provides a cohesive and uniform approach to the management of all media used within the meeting room irrespective of the underlying transport and media encodings used.1This work is expected to find application in the provision of commercial conference ser

30、vices. This Recommendation defines procedures for arbitrating use of real-time media services such as telephony and video streaming2, for advertising those services to participating nodes, and for managing and controlling those services once activated. This Recommendation specifies mechanisms for mu

31、ltimedia capability reporting at the start of and during communications, and defines procedures for arbitrating access to, and configuring the infrastructure in support of, the services. This Recommendation supports conferences in which data communication is established first as well as conferences

32、in which audio communications are established first. The provisions of this Recommendation are independent of the underlying network(s) and the content of real-time streams that traverse those networks. Furthermore, this Recommendation provides the possibility for different types of multimedia syste

33、m to co-exist within the same conference and for those systems to be controlled in a uniform manner. This Recommendation defines a Conference Server that takes responsibility for the running of the MRM Conference and a service access channel for communication between the clients and server. The MRM

34、protocol places minimal implementation burden on client terminals with most of the complexity being concentrated at the Server. This provides centralized management of the real-time infrastructure. A single server node is assigned to be the Conference Manager and the MRM Top Provider. However, commu

35、nication from clients to the MRM Top Provider is always directed to the Conference Management channel, allowing other Network Elements to also join this channel and to cooperate in delivering the conference. These other Network Elements may shadow the MRM Top Provider, allowing the possibility of on

36、e of them taking on the Top Provider role in the event of a failure condition which disables the current Conference.3This provision also allows the possibility of a distributed management mode in future versions of this protocol, enabling it to more readily scale to support large conference environm

37、ents. This Recommendation requires the services of MCS and GCC. _ 1The use of this Recommendation with H-series Recommendations is outside the scope of this work and is part of a separate harmonization activity. 2Video-streaming excludes solutions based upon Recommendation H.323, which are for furth

38、er study and are outside the current scope. 3This is currently outside the scope of this Recommendation.
