Title
EMTV --- A Component-Based DTV Middleware Extension for Educational Purposes
Abstract
This work introduces a software framework called "Extended Middleware for Digital TV (EMTV)" which is suitable for the generation of interactive applications executed over digital television systems. Its concept was developed focusing on the Brazilian technological options for Digital TV. Technically, EMTV is a procedural GEM compliant application which, from the programmer's point of view, acts as a declarative middleware extension. The framework was developed to be component-based in order to minimize the need for programming knowledge to deploy the digital TV applications using EMTV. The main goal of the platform is to facilitate the construction of interactive educational applications, a crucial field for the Brazilian population. The concept is tested and validated by the construction of a Quiz application presented at the end of the paper.
