DMIF, or Delivery Multimedia Integration Framework, is an interface between the application and the transport, that allows the MPEG-4 application developer to stop worrying about that transport. A single application can run on different transport layers when supported by the right DMIF instantiation. MPEG-4 DMIF supports the following functionalities: • A transparent MPEG-4 DMIF-application interface irrespective of whether the peer is a remote interactive peer, broadcast or local storage media. • Control of the establishment of FlexMux channels • Use of homogeneous networks between interactive peers: IP, ATM, mobile, PSTN, Narrowband ISDN. • Support for mobile networks, developed together with ITU-T • UserCommands with acknowledgment messages. • Management of MPEG-4 Sync Layer information
