Abstract: 

MPEG-M, a suite of ISO/IEC standards (ISO/IEC 23006), has been developed under the auspices of Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). MPEG-M, also known as Multimedia Service Platform Technologies (MSPT), facilitates a collection of middleware application programming interfaces (APIs) and elementary services (ESs) as well as service aggregation so that service providers (SPs) can offer users a plethora of innovative services by extending current Internet Protocol television (IPTV technology toward the seamless integration of personal content creation and distribution, e-commerce, social networks, and Internet distribution of digital media.
