Classification des services
In his thesis, Mr Kimiaei proposed a classification of services To adapt multimedia content, we will consider processes such as transcoding resource 1, transmuxing resource 2, and transforming resource 3.
Architecture du système d’adaptation
The first approach focuses on client-side adaptation, where user context, including preferences and device capabilities, is stored on the client side The server's role is limited to sending multimedia documents In [RAN06], the authors introduced a client-side adaptation system aimed at reducing energy consumption during display.
The second approach focuses on server-side adaptation in a client/server model, which overcomes terminal device limitations, as discussed in Part 1 This method allows the server to maintain multiple versions of multimedia documents tailored to the user's context, necessitating a high-capacity hard drive Recent projects, such as [PAN06], have explored multimedia content adaptation through web services, proposing an architecture called RMob 4 In this architecture, multimedia adaptation relies solely on transcoding via web services, yet it lacks elements like transmoding and transformation Nonetheless, this architecture bears a strong resemblance to the one presented in Z Kazi-Aoul's thesis.
The third approach to multimedia document adaptation is client/server-based, incorporating an intermediary module between the client and server In this setup, the number of nodes for each adaptation system is predetermined, resulting in limited flexibility It is essential to calculate the load on each intermediary node to ensure an optimal system configuration.

The project "Demonstrator of Distributed Adaptation of Multimedia Documents through Web Services" focuses on developing a system that enhances the accessibility and usability of multimedia content By leveraging web services, this demonstrator aims to adapt multimedia documents dynamically to meet user needs The initiative emphasizes the importance of distributed systems in managing multimedia resources efficiently, ensuring that users can interact with content in a personalized manner Through this approach, the project seeks to improve the overall user experience and facilitate better engagement with multimedia documents.
PAAM
Dans sa thèse, Z Kazi-Aoul a proposé une architecture fonctionnelle de PAAM (Peer-2-Peer Architecture for the provision of Adaptable Multimedia contents) On la trouvera en Fig 2.1
Fig 2.1 Architecture fonctionnelle de PAAM [KA07]
The use of PAAM can be described as follows: a user submits a request that includes multimedia documents and a usage context to the planner The planner then obtains a description of the document After jointly analyzing this description and the usage context, the planner prepares an adaptation plan to communicate to the adaptation manager The adaptation manager searches the network for basic adapters capable of executing the various steps of the adaptation plan and invokes them to fulfill the user's request.
The architecture of PAAM is based on a P2P (peer-to-peer) model, meaning the number of nodes in the network is not fixed Each node can function as either a client or a server, necessitating an adaptation management system to effectively handle the varying functionalities of the nodes within the network.
In her thesis, Z Kazi-Aoul validated that BPEL is an effective technology for composition Additionally, she provided a prototype for the PAAM architecture; however, her prototype employs very limited methods, which have constrained the scope of testing and validation Furthermore, she has not yet incorporated BPEL into her prototype This is why I am undertaking this internship following her thesis work.
The demonstrator for distributed adaptation of multimedia documents through web services showcases innovative methods for enhancing document composition This approach emphasizes the seamless integration of multimedia elements, ensuring optimal user experience and accessibility By leveraging web services, the system facilitates dynamic adaptations, allowing for tailored content delivery that meets diverse user needs This technology represents a significant advancement in the field of digital document management, promoting efficiency and flexibility in multimedia presentations.
Web services du traitement de document multimédia
Web service
A web service is a technology that enables applications to communicate remotely over the Internet, independent of programming languages and execution platforms This communication relies on the HTTP protocol and follows a request-response model, utilizing messages formatted in XML, commonly known as SOAP messages As a result, these communications typically pass through firewalls without filtering.
A web service is defined by a WSDL file, which outlines the description of interfaces, including data types and function parameters Essentially, a WSDL document consists of seven key elements.
- Type : un conteneur pour définitions des types de données utilisant quelques types existants (string, int, float, date, etc.)
- Message : une définition abstraite pour les données échangées entre web services
- Operation : une description abstraite d’une action fournie par le web service
- Port Type : un ensemble abstrait d’opérations fournies par un ou des points d’accès
- Binding : un protocole concret et la spécification du format de données pour un port type
- Port : un seul point d’accès défini comme la combinaison d’un binding et une adresse du réseau
- Service : une collection de points d’accès reliés
3.1.1 Comment peut-on créer un web service
Today, both open-source tools like Eclipse and NetBeans, as well as commercial options such as WebSphere, JBuilder, and MyEclipse, enable developers to easily create a web service in Java using the interface.
The article discusses the demonstration of distributed adaptation of multimedia documents through web services It outlines two primary methods for constructing a new web service: the Top-down approach, which involves using a WSDL file to generate Java classes before implementing the web service, and the Bottom-up approach, where a web service is generated directly from a Java class Both methods are clearly explained and can be found in the referenced document [WS15] for further details.
Synchronous web services are suitable only for quick processing times, as they rely on a single channel to receive requests and send results If the processing time extends to one or two days, the connection between the server and client may be lost, preventing result retrieval To mitigate this issue, asynchronous services should be utilized Asynchronous services operate through two separate channels: one for receiving client requests and another for sending results back to the client This design ensures that the connection is only active during the request or result transmission periods.
The Axis2 web service server provides asynchronous web services, as detailed in [WS-ASYNC] This reference offers insights into creating and invoking asynchronous services alongside clients However, there are slight differences in server configuration between the guidelines in [WS-ASYNC] and the actual implementation needed for successful operation Therefore, I will focus solely on presenting this configuration.
To create an asynchronous web service, start by developing a synchronous service using Axis2, as outlined in section 3.1.1 The web service generated by Axis2 includes a transport method definition file, typically found at /code/mobic/WebContent/WEB-INF/services/Video/META-INF/services.xml An additional line should be included as shown in Figure 3.1.

It converts text into audio, enabling automatic reading This service is essential for our increasingly busy lives, allowing us to multitask while staying informed about topics such as politics and economics.
Text-to-speech conversion is heavily influenced by the language used, making it a crucial aspect of the technology Each language possesses unique characteristics, such as intonation and structure, which means a one-size-fits-all service is not feasible for all languages worldwide However, efforts are being made to provide support for a variety of languages, including English and French.
Il s’agit de convertir un fichier audio en texte Cela veut dire qu’on a une transcription automatique pour quelques buts comme diminution de taille, etc
Il s’agit de prendre une image dans une vidéo Cela peut permettre de donner une publicité automatique basée sur des images dans une vidéo
Taking a series of images can create a summary that captures key scenes from a video This method not only aids in understanding the content more efficiently but also significantly reduces storage space compared to storing the entire video.

Réalisation
As mentioned in section 3.1.1, creating a web service using a Java class is straightforward and uncomplicated Therefore, this section will focus solely on the implementation method in Java.
In general, it is not feasible to execute all the tasks outlined in section 3.2 using JAVA However, one can leverage existing programs, such as those written in C, to facilitate the adaptation of multimedia documents.
3.3.1.1 Utilisation du logiciel pour les web services
On va montrer les logiciels utilisés (tous sont open source) pour l’adaptation dans Tab 3-2
FFmpeg is a powerful software used for audio and video processing, serving three key categories ImageMagick specializes in image-related tasks and is utilized in two categories: transcoding and transformation MPlayer is a tool that converts videos to black and white, while Tesseract extracts text from images, effectively transforming visual content into editable text.
Tab 3-2 Description des logiciels utilisés pour les web services
3.3.1.2 Transport de données Concernant les données traitées, il y a deux approches La première approche enregistre des données sur un dossier local Les avantages de cette approche sont les suivantes : simples à comprendre, faciles à faire, etc Cependant, cette approche a quelques inconvénients On ne peut pas enregistrer des données à distance Cela amène qu’on doit avoir un disque dur de grand volume car la taille du document multimédia est souvent grande Il est peut-être difficile dans quelques cas ó on ne veut pas fournir un grand disque dur sur cette machine ou il existe peut-être des risques sur celle
Another approach involves using popular protocols such as HTTP or FTP to send processed documents to a remote server While this method may take slightly more time compared to the first approach, it effectively addresses the drawbacks of the previous method In this stage, I opted for the second approach to send processed documents, as it facilitates the transfer of large files, simplifies the configuration of the PAAM system, and makes deploying PAAM easier compared to using the HTTP protocol.

Web service sémantique : WSDL-S
Ontologie PAAM
To develop the ontology for PAAM, we rely on G Hagos's thesis [HA06], as his model aligns well with the PAAM project His thesis presents a straightforward approach to constructing an ontology related to WSDL-S, where each service operation is defined by a corresponding concept in the ontology Additionally, he provides a method for defining input and output conditions based on the types of input and output We will illustrate several concepts related to operations in the WSDL document, as shown in Fig 4.1.
The diagram in Figure 4.1 illustrates the concept of Multimedia Adaptation Services, which encompasses four sub-concepts: Image Adaptation Services, Audio Adaptation Services, Text Adaptation Services, and Video Adaptation Services These sub-concepts are represented by the message subClassOf; for instance, Audio Transcoding Adaptation Services is a sub-concept of Audio Adaptation Services Chapter 3 details that the audio transcoding service consists of two operations that represent two sub-concepts of Audio Transcoding Adaptation Services However, this diagram does not sufficiently display all the concepts within our PAAM ontology, which are listed in Appendix 3.

Annotation du document WSDL
Before adding annotations to the WSDL document, it is essential to define the Namespace name, as shown in Table 4-1 Additionally, it is important to note that the WSDL version is 2.0, while the WSDL document generated in section 3.1.1 is version 1.1 Therefore, it is necessary to convert the WSDL document to version 2.0 before annotating it, which can be accomplished using the tool mentioned in [WCON].
Préfix Nom de Namespace wssem http://lsdis.cs.uga.edu/projects/meteor-s/wsdl-s/examples/WSSemantics.xsd
Tab 4-1 Namespace du document WSDL
En général, chaque élément opération est annoté par un concept dans l’ontologie Cette annotation est définie par utilisant l’attribut modelReference Elle est illustrée en Fig 4.2
The term "XML Namespace" refers to a feature in XML documents that allows the use of named elements and attributes within an XML instance By assigning a namespace to each XML vocabulary, it is possible to include names from multiple vocabularies, thus resolving ambiguities between identical names of elements or attributes Additionally, all element names within a namespace must be unique to maintain clarity and prevent conflicts.

4.2.2 Eléments d’entrée et de sortie
Each operation consists of two components: one for input and the other for output Each component is categorized as either simple or complex To annotate the input and output of an operation, we refer to definitions based on these types.
To annotate a simple type, follow the method outlined in section 4.2.1, which involves using the wssem Namespace and the modelReference attribute An example of this can be seen in Fig 4.3.
Fig 4.3 Annotation d'un type simple Avant de parler d’annotation du type complexe, on donne un exemple pour celui comme Fig 4.4
In this example of a complex type, there are two methods for annotation: one that applies to all sheets and another focused on the complex type The second method requires defining a schema to map the content, while the first method involves adding information to all sub-elements It appears that the first method is clearer for newcomers to the field compared to the second For this stage, we will utilize the first method.
On va donner quelques lignes dans la Fig 4.5 pour traiter l’exemple dans Fig 4.4

A precondition outlines a set of statements that must be met for a web service to be invoked It can specify requirements, such as "an existing account with this company is necessary," or impose restrictions, like "only Vietnamese customers are eligible." Preconditions are defined as child elements of the operation, and the schema for a precondition is illustrated in Fig 4.6.
On va expliquer quelques mots pour ce schéma : /precondition : Cet élément spécifie l’annotation sémantique pour l’opération
/precondition/@name : L’attribut name spécifie un identificateur unique dans l'ensemble des préconditions dans le document WSDL
/precondition/@modelReference : L’attribut modelReference spécifie l'URI 1 de la part d'un modèle sémantique qui décrit la précondition L’attribut modelReference et expression sont mutuellement exclusifs
Figure 4.6 illustrates the precondition schema, where the precondition is defined by an expression The format of this expression is determined by the semantic representation language used to convey the semantic model It is important to note that the attributes modelReference and expression are mutually exclusive.
On va donner un exemple pour illustrer l’application de précondition et d’effet à partir de la Fig 4.7 Le schéma d’effet sera expliqué dans la section 4.2.4
