scope:
This part of ISO/IEC 21000 specifies an ontology for representing contracts in the Multimedia Framework formed for the transaction of MPEG-21 Digital Items or services related to the MPEG-21 Framework.
The Media Contract Ontology (MCO) aims at digitally expressing the agreements made in an environment of use of ISO/IEC 21000, being these contracts about both transactions of content packed as Digital Items as well as services provided around this content, by means of a semantic representation.
The range of contracts under scope includes:
- Contracts about transactions of content as MPEG-21 Digital Items;
- Contracts about the provision of MPEG-21-based services, such as delivery, identification, encryption, search and others.
The aspects represented by MCO contracts include:
- The textual clauses, in natural language as they are in the narrative contract, duly structured;
- The operative clauses, as computer language expressions.
