RESUMO

The advent of the Interactive Digital TV around the world transforms, ultimately, the user experience in watching TV, making it richer mainly by enabling user interactivity. The users become pro-active and begin to interact with very different ways: building virtual communities, discussion about contents, sending messages and recommendations etc. In this scenario the user participation in a collaborative assumes an important and essential role. Additionally, the reception in Interactive Digital TV is done by devices that due to digital convergence are increasingly present in ubiquitous environments. Another preponderant issue to consider, resulting from this media, is the growing of the number and diversity of programs and interactive services available, increasing the difficulty of selecting relevant content. Thus, the main objective of this work is to propose and implement a software infrastructure in an Interactive Digital Television environment entitled CollaboraTVware to guide in a transparent way, users in the choice of programs and interactive services through the collaborative participation of other users with similar profiles and contexts. In the scope of this work, the collaborative participation corresponds to the rating given by users in order to express opinions about the content transmitted. The modeling of user, device used and context of user interaction, essential for the development of CollaboraTVware, are represented by granular metadata standards used in the field of Interactive Digital TV (MPEG-7, MPEG-21 and TV-Anytime), and its extensions needed. The CollaboraTVware architecture is composed of two subsystems: user device and service provider. The classification task, from the theory of data mining, is the approach adopted in the infrastructure design. The concept of participative usage profile is presented and discussed. To demonstrate the functionalities in a use scenario, was developed an application (collaborative EPG) as a case study which uses the CollaboraTVware.
