Abstract
As the scale of broadcasting systems gets bigger and the functionality of broadcasting devices becomes diverse, networking facilities are being incorporated within recent broadcasting devices. Although networked devices can perform many of the additional functionalities, an effective management becomes a difficult issue. Therefore, it is essential to provide an automated management system for monitoring and controlling distributed broadcasting devices across a network. SNMP (Simple Network Management System) is one of the enabling technologies that we could adopt when we build such a system. However, SNMP-based solution has its limitations. In this paper. we propose the TMS800 system, which is a metadata-based device management system on top of SNMP framework. The system is specifically designed for the management of distributed broadcasting devices. It makes it possible to monitor not only the status of devices, but also the videos in the form of still images. Remote control and real-time notification facilities are also provided.
