Algorithms for Secure Multimedia Delivery over Mobile Devices and Mobile Agents
Amit Pande, Joseph Zambreno · IGI Global eBooks · 2011
Rapid advances in embedded systems and mobile communications have flooded the market with a large volume of multimedia data. In this chapter, the authors present a summary of multimedia compression and encryption schemes, the way they have evolved over the decades. They first discuss the traditional approach to data encryption and their extension to video encryption. Next, they present the next generation algorithms for secure multimedia delivery, namely the Joint Video Compression and Encryption (JVCE) approach and give the reader an introduction to these approaches, the underlying assumption, advantages and limitations. The authors discuss the implementation of JVCE algorithms in light of requirements of mobile devices and propose how mobile agents can facilitate such an implementation.
