The success of the Web is due to a large extent in the development of standards that allow interoperability in open environments. Future work in the field will have greater impact if it is based and built on existing standards. Well-accepted international standards for multimedia content descriptions are MPEG-7 and TV-Anytime. However, these standards do not propose a concrete methodology and language for the integration of domainspecific knowledge for the multimedia content. Moreover, domain-specific knowledge for a specific domain related to the content of a video may be described in a well-accepted ontology description language such as OWL, which is independent of MPEG-7 and TV-Anytime.
