Research Experience
Ph.D (since March 2001)   Thesis Detail: Multimedia Services Negotiation and Adaptation Architecture in Heterogeneous Environments. Directors: Dr. Nabil LAYAÏDA and Dr. Cécile ROISIN. The results of our continuous work are used and applied in many projects such as WAM, OPERA, W3C, CEMT, etc.
WAM Team (since January 2003)   The WAM project (Web Adaptation Multimedia) addresses some issues raised by the latest developments of the Web. It focuses on document transformations considered as a paradigm for processing Web documents. Particular attention is paid to multimedia documents, i.e. documents that tightly integrate static media (text, images and equations) and dynamic media (video, audio, animations). The main results of this work are applied to the adaptation of multimedia documents and to device independence on the Web. Our contribution is to ensure device independence principles in multimedia systems and to design solutions (such as proxy based architectures) for the content adaptation for small and embedded devices. This includes the resolution of the problems related to the document transformation, content adaptation, context modeling, content delivery, communication protocols, etc.
OPERA Team (March 2001 - December 2002)   The OPERA project is interested in electronic documents, such as technical documentation, hypertext, and multimedia. It studies document models that take into account logical structures, graphical presentation and multimedia contents. It also develops editing techniques based on these models. Our contribution is to enable the negotiation of the multimedia content in heterogeneous and mobile environments and to develop adaptation methods that ensure the universal access for small and limited devices.
W3C DI WG (Since January 2003)   The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is working towards making the information of the World Wide Web accessible to various devices and achieving Web device independent authoring. The aim of the DI Working Group is to avoid fragmentation of the Web space accessible with various kinds of devices. The group collects the requirements on Web access with various devices, reviews related specifications within and outside W3C, and describes techniques which allow authors to better manage device dependencies and propose recommendations in the areas of delivery context and device independent authoring. The DI Working Group has also committed to do what is required to move the "CC/PP: Structure and Vocabularies" Working Draft to Recommendation. We try in this group to contribute with our experience regarding mobile devices environments, content adaptation, CC/PP, content negotiation, NAC architecture, etc.
CEMT Project (2001-2002)   The goal of the CEMT project is to develop a cooperative environment for the edition of multimedia documents, using Workflow concepts to coordinate the editing and rendering tasks. This project is a cooperation project CNPq-INRIA between the Opera project (INRIA, France) and Instituto de Informatica at UFRGS (Brazil). Our contribution is to integrate the negotiation and the adaptation mechanisms in the E-learning system following the proposed workflow model.
OPERA-Alcatel Bell Collaboration (2001-2002)   The goal of the OPERA/Alcatel-Bell collaboration is the creation and the deployment of new services on the Internet for the heterogeneous environments. Our task is to ensure that these services should be provided independently to the delivery context (Device Independent Authoring). The objective is to design automatic methods that enable the negotiation of services and the adaptation of the content based on the terminals capabilities, the user preferences and the network characteristics. The approach consists in developing vocabularies that describe universal profiling that allow the description of the system components and consequently enable the adaptation based on these profiles. The adaptation considers formats that are widely used such as XHTML, VoiceXML or WML.
