Abstract
The Web of Things will allow dynamic configuration of multimedia services based on the user's physical environment, challenging the current Internet Architecture. The Future Media Internet Architecture will need to support dynamic configuration of multimedia services, synchronization between real-world objects, and seamless integration of real-time streamed media with other multimedia objects. Based on the knowledge gained in a number of projects (Passepartout, SPICE, and TA2), this talk will illustrate ubiquitous multimedia services. It will then provide insights on the future convergence of multimedia computing and the Web of Things paradigm, highlighting requirements for the Future Internet and analyzing challenges ahead.
