2、CITT Recommendation) ITU-T T-SERIES RECOMMENDATIONS TERMINALS FOR TELEMATIC SERVICES For further details, please refer to ITU-T List of Recommendations. FOREWORD The ITU-T (Telecommunication Standardization Sector) is a permanent organ of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The ITU-T is

3、 responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommen- dations 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 stud

4、y by the ITU-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 (Helsinki, March 1-12, 1993). IT-T Recommendation T.174 was prepared by ITU-T Study Gr

5、oup 8 (1993-1996) and was approved by the WTSC (Geneva, 9-18 October 1996). NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency.

INTRODUCTION This Recommendation specifies the abstract Application Programming Interface (API) for the manipulation of multimedia a

42、nd hypermedia information objects, .e. the API that shall be provided by MHEG engines for their control by MHEG applications. This Recommendation is part of a broader standardisation framework that specifies the usage of MHEG so that interoperable equipments can be effectively developed to support m

43、ultimedia information services and applications. This implies: specifiing additional constraints to the use of MHEG objects within distributed systems and applications using telecommunication networks; defining APIS that building blocks of MHEG-using architectures should provide; defining MHEG profi

44、les complementing the MHEG-1 standard by specifying restrictions on the coded representation and speciQing the complete required behaviour of an MHEG engine that should be supported for a given category of applications and/or terminal equipments; defining an MHEG script interchange representation; d

45、efining end-to-end protocols for MHEG-using multimediahypermedia information services; specifying conformance testing procedures for these standards. - - - - - - Functional and technical requirements on this Recommendation have been described in ETR 225.

47、ects). These so-called MHEG objects are handled, interpreted and presented by MHEG engines. This Recommendation specifies the abstract Application Programming Interface (API) for the manipulation of multimedia and hypermedia information objects, Le. the API that shall be provided by MHEG engines for

48、 their control by MHEG applications. This API meets the following requirements: - - - it is independent of the programming language used for the MHEG application; it is independent of the underlying operating system; it is independent of the mechanism used for interchanging information between the A

49、PI user (i.e. MHEG application) and the API provider (i.e. MHEG engine), Le. the messages that are exchanged as the result of triggering API primitives; it is independent of the actual encoding of these messages; it is generic and meant to cover all application requirements; - - - it is conformance testable; - it aims to be as easy as possible to implement. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
