Mashing up TV and the Web in the mobile world

Abstract

In this paper we propose a mashup-based solution to integrate TV contents with contents from the Web on the playground of the Mobile Web. Concretely, we define a mashup API (referred to as esgAPI) for retrieving information about the DVB-H services available on an mobile TV (m-TV) receiver. By using this API, we can offer richer mobile applications which combine these DVB-H services with other Web sources (maps, calendars, blogs, etc.).
