A viable approach to deliver television events, having multiple and selectable plots: MultiChannelStory

Published: 15 June 2005 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we describe an idea to develop interactive narrative with iTV. We propose a framework to deliver television events, usually dramas or cartoons, having multiple and selectable plots, using the DVB-MHP platform. We define these events as MultiChannelStories.
